Good Quality
12/13/2011 2:51:32 PMDave Reid from Calgary writes:
- Strengths:
- I have been using these units for a good 10 years and have yet to experience a failure. It's a good idea and cost effective to buy the matching cables that have a video and usb in the same cable, much neater installation.
- Weaknesses:
- Very old units are USB1.0 so watch out for old units. New ones are USB 2.0.
- Summary:
- Would buy again.
Works just Fine

- Strengths:
- Simple setup, low cost.
- Weaknesses:
- Would be nice if it let you setup onscreen video labels.
- Summary:
- No frills, works as expected. To comment on a previous review, it is hardly a loss that you can't use a standard monitor cable with these. It isn't a big expense to purchase the cables that are combined USB/VGA which are cleaner than having seperate USB and VGA cables.
Insufficient USB power

- Strengths:
- Weaknesses:
- - two shared USB devices require an external power supply
- Summary:
- When I connected my little Logitech portable USB speakers as a shared USB device beside the mouse and keyboard, "the USB hub" didn't have enough power to run the speakers (sigh). I would not buy this switch again, for sure. First you have to fix the male DB15 socket problem, then the shared USB problem, and each one costs more and more money.
Awful DB15 Male Connections
3/24/2009 2:17:40 PMKevin from BC writes:
- Strengths:
- Compact switch
USB connections for everything - Weaknesses:
- Terrible design choice to use DB15 male connectors (sockets) on the switch for the 4 monitor cables to the PCs. This means I can't use normal monitor cables at all.
- Summary:
- Why in the world would they put DB15 male connectors (sockets) on the switch when the standard cables that everyone uses for monitors and computers are DB15 male-to-male? The sockets should be DB15 female. Now I have to go out and buy 4 new cables or DB15 female-to-female adapters to make the switch usable, which will probably double the price of the switch. Hopefully this review will save someone a big surprise.
