" ...  It is nice to be able to bury the KVM box and cables behind the computers, out of sight, and switch between the computers via a small switch out front of the computers. ... My previous KVM switches were VGA and did not have that nice improvement. ... This switch has the full size HDMI ports and the provide cables are full size HDMI too.  ...  "

" ...  I started with the other HDMI version of this device/brand (B07QM6ND7R) which worked perfectly as it was advertised. ... Automatically worked on plug and play for both my work laptop and personal laptop on my HDMI monitor. ... I've not used the audio/mic cables as my personal laptop goes into speakers and my work laptop uses the USB speaker attached to the monitor for teleconferencing. ... However, I can confirm that audio over HDMI works perfectly if you choose that output. ... I had to shift the laptops closer with this one as the HDMI cables and USB/audio cables seem a little shorter. ... HOWEVER, unlike the other device, THIS one allows you to use your own cables and the cables are not hard-wired into the device. ... One final item that I've seen in reviews of other switches or the other HDMI device from this company, the slickness on the bottom of the device and/or button. ... So, final conclusion, definitely worth the extra bucks for this version if you need HDCP or need to swap in longer cables.  ...  "

" ...  I experimented with several monitors, the HDMI and DP versions of the KVM, and a boatload of converter cables to find a good configuration. ... I replaced the monitor with an Asus VP247QG monitor and eliminated the converter cable and things started working really well. ... Replacing the monitor and eliminating all of the converters solved virtually all of the problems with the HDMI version of the KVM switch although it still takes it ~3-5 seconds to get video when switching to my laptop computer. ... Everything else is flawless, you’d never know you were hooked up through a KVM switch! ... The bottom line: These are solid, nearly perfect DP and HDMI KVMs with the right hardware attached.  ...  "

comment
" ...  This is clever, but it also means you have to be sure an use the included cables to hook up to the PC and use the extension on the other end of the VGA cable. ... It also means that you CANNOT use a standard VGA extension cable. ... You have to use an HD-15 D-SUB extension cable. ... Make sure the cable spec says all pins are passed through.  ...  "

comment
" ...  The wired remote switch is a very useful feature on a KVM to be able to have the button accessible but the KVM itself tucked out of the way. ...
