Compact two-port KVM switch

The Tripp Lite B004-VUA2-K-R lets one keyboard, mouse and monitor control two computers. USB and D-Sub connections keep the cabling simple, while integrated audio switching routes speakers or a headset to the active system. Plug-and-play operation means no driver installation is required for basic use. It suits home offices, small labs or any desk where space is limited.

Sustained operation with hot-swap support

Hot-swap capability allows computers to be added or removed without powering down the switch or the attached systems. Switching between ports remains responsive whether triggered by the front push button, a keyboard hot key or the supplied software utility. Video output holds at 2048 x 1536 during extended sessions. The design is built for continuous daily use rather than occasional brief changes.

Passive cooling and low power draw

The unit runs without fans, so it adds no audible noise to the workspace. Power is drawn from the connected USB ports, eliminating the need for an external adapter and keeping energy consumption minimal. At 1.9 kg the switch stays firmly in place on a desk or shelf. Thermal performance is consistent because there are no active cooling components to degrade over time.

Questions about this item

Does the 2048 × 1536 video output run silently and without extra power?

The switch draws power from the USB bus and has no fan, so it adds no audible noise or heat during all-day use.

Which cables must I already have to connect two computers and one monitor?

Each computer needs a USB Type-A port and a VGA (D-Sub) video output; the monitor needs a VGA input, and the included cables cover those links.

Will a legacy VGA monitor running at 2048 × 1536 display correctly through the switch?

Yes, the single VGA monitor port supports up to 2048 × 1536, matching the switch’s maximum video resolution.
