An Almost-Perfect KVM
Included with this KVM are 2 USB cables for connecting to computers, an IR receiver with separate 3M adhesive pad, and an IR remote with a CR2035 battery included.I have my personal desktop PC and my work laptop connected to the KVM which outputs to a single 1080p monitor via HDMI 2.0 cables (not included). With this I am able to achieve the maximum frame rate for my monitor of 144Hz at 1920x1080 resolution.I have my mouse and keyboard connected directly to the KVM on the first 2 front USB ports. I have a USB hub connected to the third front port which in turn has my microphone, webcam, and speakers plugged into the USB hub. The KVM itself is powered and doesn't seem to require a separate powered USB hub.The KVM and all connections are underneath my desk and I use the IR receiver mounted on top of my desk with the remote to switch between computers.All devices are able to transition between both computers without issue. The KVM takes around 6 seconds to switch between computers.The only reason I can't give this product 5 stars is that the hotkey functionality simply does not work for me. I experienced the same issues others have mentioned where my keyboard was scrambled, almost like every key press had the CTRL key pressed down, and required me to plug my keyboard into another port and restart my computer. I'm not sure if this is because I'm using a higher-end gaming keyboard but regardless this functionality unfortunately does not work as expected.

Very buggy keyboard passthrough.
Turning on "Hotkey switching" kills the keyboard. (keys are mixed up or not functional)Out of the box I had to power cycle the unit, (assumed this was a one off start up issue) to get the keyboard to work correctly. Second day in use the issue returned. Power cycled the unit to resolve, however turning on "hotkey switching" mucked up the keyboard again.I can't put up with this faffing about. Going back.

Screen flickers at 4k@120Hz resolution
Yeah, it's well designed device with solid build and great specifications, but... I tried to get it working with NVIDIA 3080Ti and my 4k LG monitor to no avail. Familiar problem (to some) of screen flickering every few seconds makes the device unusable.Tested with multiple PC's, all available display mode combinations (RGB vs. ycbcr444, 8-bit colour depth, HDR and no HDR) and the device works very well indeed at 4k @30Hz resolution and below. From 4k@60Hz up, however, you get occasional flicker and at 120Hz that becomes unworkable.Yes I have updated all my drivers, flashed bios and used brand new 8k HDMI cables from single provider (before you ask). All cables worked when connected directly to monitor.I also tried two separate SW21H21 devices, and one SW41H21 device - the same issue persists, though the 4-port device seems to be more stable than the 2-port version.I recon there is a flaw in hardware design that may well be addressed in future releases, but for the time being vendor is hoping most users will stick to 2k resolution and never come to notice.Hope this helps.

It came and it went (straight back to Amazon)
This product looked ideal for me. Great materials, compact and latest tech standards I was looking for.So far so good...What I got was a product that did not output video of any kind. Tried an assortment of cables (new and old) but just no video output. Tried resetting device too, but still no joy. Decent quality control is sadly missing from this company's processes, which you'd think would be there for the price I paid.To conclude, I sent it back and got a refund !!

Great idea just not reliable
Feels a good product but sadly the USB peripherals just randomly disconnect to the point I can’t rely on it. I wanted this to work so bad.

Extremely good design, nice quality, and very good performance up to 8K HD 48Gbps
This looks like a simple KVM switch that is a tad pricey, that is so wrong on every level. It is extremely well designed and has simplified a lot of complex handling of the inputs to outputs at extremely high datarates of up to 48Gbps. This is extremely good value for money. The Audio handling alone is very good It supports fantastic audio formats such as Dolby Atmos, DTS X,Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, PCM7.1. The video handling is 8K@60Hz, 4K@120Hz with 3 modes of control - Hotkey, IR remote or Button control. The screen, keyboard and mouse can then be effectively switched between two computers. Great easy to setup and use. Stunning little switch that has amazing picture and audio quality, a must buy. Andrew

Simple to setup and easy to use.
This switch is easy to use and easy to set up. A usb power cable is supplied so you can power the switch direct from your computer or any USB port. There’s a keyboard and mouse plug on one side of the switch as well as an hdmi port to feed to your monitor. Shame there are no hdmi cables but not really a problem. Two usb cables are provided to feed from the usb3 ports on the switch to the USB ports on your computers. Plug your two hdmi cables from either device into the switch and your good to go. If you want to use the ir remote an ir cable os provided to put the sensor somewhere your remote will see it easily. Perfect if like me you have the switch tucked under a desk. I’ve used the switch to feed both my laptop and computer to one monitor when I’m working from home, I can easily jump back and forward between the laptop or pc on one screen now which works great for me. The image appears instantly and I don’t see any loss in quality. Very happy with this switch.
