User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work with a microsoft surface pro? does it come with the cables i will need
Answer:	NO - you would have to purchase more. All Surface Pro's only have 1x USB port and 1x mini-Display Port (not HDMI). You would have to purchase a mini-DP to HDMI video adapter (less than $10) to use it with this switch. Microsoft does sell a port replicator (~$150), but it also only has mini-DP video ports (so it does NOT help you to buy that). "Orion" said "Micro Surface Dock" could plug into this KVM, but only "later" said that you still need a video adapter. If you need this HDMI KVM switch, the easiest/best/cheapest thing to do would be to buy a simple "mini-DP to HDMI" video adapter and plug the (now HDMI) and USB into this KVM switch.
Question:	Does the switch “proxy” edid information when the host isn’t selected to talk directly to the monitor
Answer:	Its supposed to, but I have not found this magical 1080p/auto edid button that the manual keeps mentioning. So my lg ultrawide is stuck on 1080p for all 4 of my pc.
Question:	I recently bought this bu when I went to set i up today, the box appears to be opened. Its missing 2 of the cables.I set it up and would rather to get
Answer:	Contact their support email--it is in answers to other questions which I cannot see at the moment while I'm answering this question. They are incredibly responsive--one of my cables was broken and they sent me TWO replacements within a week.
Question:	Does this support uhd 4k, ie: 3840x2160/30p ? another kvm i bought that claimed 4k support only supports 1080p/1080p 3d
Answer:	I have a ultra wide lg monitor and when I connect the kvm switch it did not go all the way to 4k. It was not supported it went to a Max of 1920 x 1080. I didn't like the way the display look. All my icon where big AF!. Kvm i switch is on a drawer...😂😂😂

User questions & answers

Question:	The kvm doesn't need a usb input from the pc? i only see vga inputs on the box
Answer:	Yes, it is safe to use with septic systems.
Question:	I have a very old kvm switch. it requires both computers to be turned on for it to work on either computer. does this switch have that requirement
Answer:	It contains citric acid and sodium bisulfate. Does an exceleent job of cleaning. The racks slide in and out so much easier.
Question:	How long are the cables
Answer:	Well, it can be run with dishes in the diswasher if you want to. It also has a pleasant, lemony scent. Bleach, especially in such a small concentration, does not do much for hard water build up/lime scale. For that you need something acidic. If you don't want to use these tablets, a cup or two of vinegar (apple cider vinegar smells better, but any vinegar will do) works fairly well. I have also sprinkled baking soda in the grate in the bottom of my dishwasher, then poured the vinegar in and let it sit a few minutes before running the dishwasher to clean it. The reaction of the vinegar and baking soda helps loosen bits of food residue caught in the grates.
Question:	Does it work with linux, such as ubuntu or centos
Answer:	No, the main interesting ingredient here is citric acid, which will remove the "hard" water buildup (calcium and magnesium minerals) from the dishwasher, along with anything odor-causing that's living in that buildup. The only thing that'll get your dishwasher cleaning dishes properly again is putting phosphate back in the dishwasher detergent (it was taken out by all the manufacturers in 2010 because some, not even all, the states banned it). You can either go through some contortions to buy sodium hexametaphosphate and add it to regular detergent or buy something like Bubble Bandit (which gets around the bans, even in those legislatively-misguided states, by claiming to be for commercial dishwashing machines) which still has plenty of phosphate in it. You could also try one of the fancy multi-compartment detergent pods (the highest-end Cascade as well as Finish Quantum, possibly others, but do your research for which ones actually work), but those are pretty expensive, especially since the different-colored compartments aren't just a gimmic (likeI, cynically, originally thought) but are actually supposed to release different chemicals at different times in the rinse cycle. Phosphates will both get your dishwasher cleaning again and prevent the buildup in the first place. Their removal from dishwasher detergents is a faux-environmentalism scam, as those contributed less to less than 1% of the phosphates in wastewater, even in those places where phosphate concentrations were a legitimate problem (which is not even everywhere). The biggest culprit is, unsurprisingly, industrial pollution, and that's, equally unsurprisingly, still not banned, despite everyone's dishwashers having been rendered useless. Why pay more for fancy pods with unknown-impact chemicals when good, old phosphates do the job perfectly well?

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it hard to install it
Answer:	It comes with four special VGA cables that have a USB cable attached on one end. This USB cable plugs into each of the computer's USB port, then you plug one key- board and one mouse into the junction box, then the key-board and mouse are shared with up to four different computer's. Very handy device when using more than one computer. I have one and I love it! Very nice at a great price...P.R.
Question:	Can i connect a usb hub
Answer:	Yes the controller is included, but after 4 months,I'm having problems with this device switching on its own which is very annoying. I had the same problem with another device (same model) from a different seller, which I returned. So I guess this is a problem specific to this device

What differences are for USB3.0 KVM, USB VGA KVM and USB HDMI KVM?

1. USB 3.0 KVM switch can't connect a monitor as no video port like VGA, HDMI, DPI ports available. Two computers require 2 monitors, while USB VGA KVM or USB HDMI KVM only requires 1 monitor.

2. USB 3.0 KVM can't send video or audio on monitor or TV, and VGA can send video at 108p resolution, while HDMI KVM switch can even send 4K video & audio on monitor or HD TV.

Overall, the USB VGA KVM switch provides all features that usb3.0 does. But if you want to send 4K video & audion on HD TV, the HDMI switch is the best option, like asin B08DR2SHCP.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I use two monitors from this switch and extend the display (not duplicate) from either the laptop or cpu to both monitors at the same time
Answer:	That typically requires a more expensive VGA/DVI KVM switch ~$200. However, this could work with two of these and just use the second KVM for the second monitor - requires two VGA outputs from both systems and pressing both switches. The latter is not recommended but would suffice. For the second monitor, you may be better off using a DVI connection and keeping it dedicated to that system. The would enable you to share the VGA monitor with both systems but have the second monitor available on one of them. I currently use this without any significant problems.
Question:	Can I use this with a dac that has 1 usb input? I want to switch between two input devices
Answer:	Hi friend, You can switch between two computers to share a mouse/keyboard/monitor. Thanks for your inquiry and support.
Question:	if I plug in a a mouse and a keyboard to a hub and plug them into one of the usb ports on this kvm switch will they both work
Answer:	one usb for mouse and one for keyboard on kvm only.
Question:	Will this still work even though I only need to share the monitor between 2 pcs, not the keyboard/mouse
Answer:	Then only plug the monitors into the switch and wire everything else directly

Question:	Is the manual for this product available in downloadable form somewhere, e.g. pdf? cannot locate manufacturer website...just amazon storefront

Question:	does the power adapter support 220 volt? or it's only 110 volt
Answer:	This 4 port displayport KVM comes with a DC 5V 2A power adapter, you can plug it into AC110-220V socket for power supply. Email us ([email protected]) for more assist.
Question:	Kvm connectors on unit have 15 pins like vga connectors, most of which are assigned to vga signals. how is usb/audio incorporated
Answer:	USB and audio have separate plugs on the cable ends that plug into PCs. The other end of cables have only VGA connector that plugs into unit so it must use a couple unused wires in the cable. In any case, it works fine. I actually have a small 4 input USB hub to share the extra USB input so I can use a USB mike, camera, and scanner that all PCs can now use. After about 3 months use, I haven't had any problems with any USB input including mouse and keyboard or with audio.
Question:	Does this switch support 1440p at 144Hz
Answer:	This 2 port displayport cable KVM switch is DP1.2 60Hz version, it don't support DP 1.4. It doesn't compatible DP1.4 version, 100Hz, 120Hz, 144Hz devices.
