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 SM-DPN-2Q-S

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A well-priced quad-monitor DisplayPort switch for a two-computer analyst or trading workstation.
