Lindy 2 Port HDMI 4K60 USB 2.0 & Audio Cable KVM Switch Review

For anyone specifically searching for a full-color 4K60 HDMI KVM switch rather than the 4:2:0-limited 4K30 version, the Lindy 2 Port HDMI 4K60 USB 2.0 & Audio Cable KVM Switch (42345) is the step up in the same cable-switch family.

The jump to HDMI 2.0 means it holds full 4:4:4 chroma at 4K60, so text and UI elements stay sharp instead of getting the slight color smearing you'd see on the HDMI 1.4 model.

Video & Switching

HDCP 2.2 support means it plays nicely with protected 4K streaming content on both connected machines. Switching is the same three-way setup as Lindy's other cable switches - push button, hotkey, or software - and it's still USB 2.0 for the keyboard/mouse hub rather than USB 3.0.

Build

It's a touch larger than the 42340 (97 x 25 x 82.18mm) to fit the extra bandwidth electronics, still plastic-housed and bus-powered so no external adapter is needed.

The 4K60 upgrade over LINDY's base HDMI KVM, better refresh-rate headroom for the same cable-KVM form factor.
