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.

IOGEAR GCS1642

7.4 / 10 Expert Rating

A solid budget 2-port HDMI KVM; DisplayPort users should look at the GCS1742 instead.
