Unitek USB 3.0 HDMI DP 2 in 2out KVM Switch

Funktioniert sehr gut in Windows und Linux, alle Monitore, USB Geräte und Audio wurden sofort gefunden. Der Wechsel ist auch sehr schnell.

Used to get my mouse/keyboard dongle closer to the desktop. My CPU is in a cabinet under my desk and the mouse and keyboard sometimes acted up. When I added this USB extension I can have the dongle on the desktop next to my monitor. Now I have a stronger signal from my mouse and keyboard and they act better.

I've been using the Unitek KVM with 1 HDMI and 1 DisplayPort for a few months. It works flawlessly. The little metal box is solidly built. Even after a full day of work between two computers, I have never noticed the box was hot. Especially important to me was the fact that the DP was compliant with v1.2. I have two 2k monitors in a daisy chain configuration using DP inputs and both are working at their max resolution. To connect my laptop I use a DP to USB-C adapter into my USB-C alt DP port and it works great. Other reviews noted issues with getting audio to work. I was able to, but it took a little experimentation. On my setup, the audio is channeled from the computers via the USB connection between the computer and the Unitek KVM. So on each computer I needed to select the correct USB audio device as the output. On my Linux computer it was called Speakers Audio Adapter (Unitek Y-247A), and on my Windows 11 laptop it is called Speakers 2 - USB Audio from the Settings > System > Sound menu in Win11. The Amazon description says that the KVM is not compatible with laptops. I don't know why it says that. I am using it with a Dell windows laptop and a Dell Linux desktop and it works just fine on both. I will say that if you use a KVM on a Linux machine, there seems to be an issue with the picture returning to the monitor after the computer wakes from a long sleep. I thought it was the KVM, but it isn't. I'm not sure if it's the way the DP drivers work in Linux and it wouldn't happen if I used the HDMI insteasd, but what I have found is that it's important to switch to the Linux computer on the KVM before waking up the Linux computer itself. If you end up with a black screen but it seems like the computer is working fine, that's because it is. I have not found a fix for this but have been managing the symptom instead.

2台のPCと2台のモニターを切り替えて使っていて、これまでは面倒臭い手順がありましたが、これを導入してからは非常に簡単になりました。またケーブルが左右に入り組んでいてまとめにくかったのもスッキリしました。

I bought this Unitek dual monitor KVM to share two 4K screens, keyboard, mouse and other USB devices between my work PC and personal PC, and it has made my setup so much easier to manage. Once everything was plugged in, it worked exactly as advertised – both monitors run at 4K@60Hz with a crisp, stable picture and no flickering or random black screens. Switching between computers is very quick and smooth. One press of the button and both monitors, plus keyboard, mouse and USB peripherals, swap over to the other machine in a couple of seconds. It’s much nicer than constantly swapping cables around, and it feels completely seamless when I move from one system to the other. The unit itself feels solid and well built, and it doesn’t take up too much space on the desk. The layout of the ports is sensible, and the included cables make it straightforward to get everything connected. Once set up, I’ve had no issues with devices not being recognised or dropping out – it’s been very reliable day to day. Overall, this is an excellent KVM if you run two computers with two monitors and want a clean, simple solution. It does exactly what it claims, with great 4K image quality and hassle-free switching. I’m very happy with it and would definitely recommend it.
