Verdict

Adder Technology Adder AdderView PRO AV4PRO

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A serious modular KVM built for control rooms that need to scale past 4 computers, overkill for a simple desk setup.

ATEN CS1844

8.2 / 10 Expert Rating

ATEN's full-featured 4-port HDMI switch, worth the premium over the CS1824 line specifically for true 4K@60Hz 4:4:4.
