SIIG 2x2 Dual View USB HDMI KVM Switch Review

If you're looking for a dual-monitor HDMI KVM switch rather than a single-display one, the SIIG 2x2 Dual View USB HDMI KVM Switch (CE-KV0711-S1) switches two computers across two independent HDMI displays at once.

It's built for a genuine dual-monitor workflow - both screens switch together when you swap PCs, controlled either by the included IR remote (rated to 5 meters) or keyboard hotkeys, so you don't need to be at the desk to switch.

Audio & Video

Audio support goes well beyond basic stereo here, passing through 5.1 surround plus Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio - a genuinely home-theater-capable spec for a desktop KVM. Video is capped at HDMI 1.4 and 4K30, so it's aimed at productivity and media rather than high-refresh gaming.

Build & Control

The aluminum housing gives it a sturdier feel than most plastic KVM switches at this size, and it runs off a proper 5V/3A external adapter rather than USB bus power. Three USB 2.0 Type-A hub ports cover keyboard, mouse and a spare peripheral.
