- Strengths:
- Small unit
No external power supply
- Weaknesses:
- Short cables
Only passes through stabdard keys
Price is way too high for you get
- Summary:
- The unit only passes through standard keys. I have a keyboard with volume control, mail, internet shortcuts - none work with this KVM. The cables are very short and the price is high. I don't recomend this product.
Basic only and repeated keys

- Strengths:
- Performs it's function.
- Weaknesses:
- Only works with basic keyboard and mouse. Sometimes misses keystrokes and often repeats keystrokes (like a stuck key while you are typing). Extremely annoying especially when using the backspace key...
- Summary:
- Would definately look for an alternative. (Tooks me 3 tries to type this sentence)
Waste of time

- Strengths:
- None - simply did not work with my existing peripherals.
- Weaknesses:
- This KVM would not recognize my Dell wired USB keyboard or my Logitech wireless mouse. I did scrounge an old Microsoft wireless keyboard and an even older Microsoft wired mouse that somehow met this devices requirements but there is no way I want to use these daily. D-Link "Technical Support" was the worst experience I have had to date with a call center.... which is really saying something.
- Summary:
- Unless you have an incredibly basic wired keyboard and wired mouse don't waste your time with this product.
an excellent product

- Strengths:
- Keyboard switching of computers don't need access to unit
Easy setup
Small footprint
- Weaknesses:
- Only supports basic keyboard and mouse
- Summary:
- Good basic switching unit, but you are limited to basic keyboard only it will not support advanced keys. Mouse is also basic Wacom tablet will not work through it. I would prefer a straight through USB so it would support advanced equipment.
keystrokes repeat

- Strengths:
- switch picks up mouse keyboard fairly quickly
- Weaknesses:
- issue with keys going repeating itself every so often. very frustrating.
this is enough for me to return this.
- Summary:
- The bug in keyboard repeating keystroke is bad enough to make me buy another KVM. Tried Logitech and Microsoft USB keyboards with no luck.
Excellent product
