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 SV240

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A reliable enterprise-grade VGA switch for environments not ready to move to DisplayPort/HDMI.
