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.

SmartAVI SKMN-4S-P 4-Port Secure Pro KM Switch with CAC Port

7.8 / 10 Expert Rating

The right call whenever CAC authentication has to travel with the KM switch itself — a clean, isolated way to add smart-card switching to four systems.
