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.

Avocent (Vertiv) Avocent SC945H

8 / 10 Expert Rating

The right pick when NIAP-grade channel isolation actually matters, not a general office KVM.
