2-Port USB-C KVM with 4K 60Hz Output

This USB-C KVM switch lets two laptops share one HDMI monitor and a single USB 2.0 peripheral port. Each laptop connects with one USB-C cable that carries video, data and power. The switch supports resolutions up to 4K at 60 Hz and lower rates such as 2560×1440 at 120 Hz. A 1.5 m wired remote and front push buttons provide two ways to change the active computer.

Windows and Mac users needing a tidy two-laptop

The unit works with laptops running Windows or Mac OS that can output video over USB-C DP Alt Mode. It does not support USB-C docking stations, EDID emulation or hotkey switching. Buyers who need more than one monitor, additional USB ports without a separate hub, or compatibility with Linux and Chrome OS should look at something else.

Fits a dual-laptop desk with one HDMI display

Connect each laptop to the USB-C inputs, plug the monitor into the HDMI output, and attach keyboard and mouse to the USB 2.0 port. A USB hub can be added to that port for extra devices. The included USB power cable must be connected for operation. HDMI and USB-C cables are not supplied, so have suitable HDMI 2.0 or 2.1 cables ready. The IP54-rated enclosure measures 14.33 in wide, 12.83 in high and 9.06 in deep.
