Verdict

Adder ALIF1002P

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A capable enterprise DVI network extender pair, priced for serious IP KVM matrix deployments rather than single-room extension.

SmartAVI SM-DPN-4D-S

8.2 / 10 Expert Rating

A well-priced dual-head DisplayPort switch; buyers needing three or four monitors should look at SmartAVI's quad-head SM-DPN-4Q-S instead.
