Tripp Lite B006-VU4-R 4-Port Desktop KVM Switch (USB) Review
The Tripp Lite B006-VU4-R is a 4-port desktop USB KVM switch for VGA computers, built with a heavy-duty steel housing rather than the plastic shells common on budget switches.
It switches via front-panel pushbuttons or keyboard hotkey commands, includes an auto-scan mode with a user-adjustable 11-99 second interval, and needs no software to run. No audio support here, just clean VGA/USB switching in a durable enclosure backed by Tripp Lite's 3-year warranty.
Who it's for
Desktop users or small offices wanting a durable, no-frills 4-port VGA KVM switch with a metal housing.
Limitations
VGA only; no audio.
