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.

Emerald (Black Box) Emerald EMD4000T

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A capable 4K DisplayPort transmitter for serious network-routed KVM deployments — compare against ATEN's cheaper 5K KX9970T before committing.
