ATEN 2-Port USB-C Gen 1 KVM Switch/Dock US3310 ($163.19) Review
The ATEN US3310 is a compact 2-port USB-C KVM switch and dock combo with a 3-port USB hub and 60W power delivery, priced at $163.19.
ATEN packaged this as both a KVM switch and a laptop dock, so two USB-C laptops can share one monitor, keyboard, mouse and hub while also drawing charging power through the same cable, a genuinely different niche from the desktop-focused ATEN CS1944 and CS1642A in this same catalog. It's the most affordable ATEN switch in this batch by a wide margin, reflecting its consumer/prosumer laptop-dock positioning rather than an enterprise workstation switch.
KVM Switch and Laptop Dock in One
Because it's built around USB-C, the US3310 doubles as a charging dock, delivering up to 60W of power delivery to whichever laptop is connected alongside video and peripheral switching.
Budget-Friendly Two-Laptop Switching
At $163.19 this is far more affordable than ATEN's desktop-focused DisplayPort switches, reflecting its target market of two-laptop hot-desking rather than permanent desktop workstations.
Comparison to Alternatives
Versus the ATEN CS1944 — that's a desktop-focused DisplayPort switch without laptop charging, worth it for permanent desktop machines. Versus the ATEN CS1642A — that supports dual 4K monitors rather than a single 4K@30Hz output, worth it for a full workstation setup rather than laptop hot-desking.
