However, I have had a fair bit of experience with KVMs (smaller Belkin and IOGear products all the way up to big fancy Avocent OSD models) and I'm generally pretty pleased with StarTech so I figured I'd take the plunge and I'm glad I did.The unit it somewhat larger than similar models but it's case is constructed from steel or some other metal and doesn't feel flimsy which is a definite plus. Also, being a little on the larger size makes it much less painful to manage what can otherwise be an untameable octopus of cables that is often associated with KVMs.Included with the unit is only the KVM itself, manuals and software, and an AC adapter for power. Fortunatley, I was able to pull everything but one DVI cable out of my computer bone-yard so there wasn't much additional expense. However, if you do not have ready access to such a quantity of surplus hardware, you will need to purchase the cables for connecting the remotes (the two computers to be controlled) to the KVM.Specifically:2 x DVI male-to-male single- or dual-link extension cable2 x HD15 male-to-male analog video extension cable2 x USB-A to USB-B cable for the keyboard/mouse/USB hub signal2 x 3.5mm microphone/speaker cablesAll of that is in addition to what you are currently using for your monitors, keyboard, mouse, etc. as all of that will be connected to the host or input side of the KVM. Also note, I am not using the audio portion of the KVM so it remains untested but that seems like pretty basic functionality so I doubt it's a problem.I'm using a very simple Dell 104 key standard keyboard and haven't had any of the troubles some of the other reviewers have reported when using lighted, wireless, or otherwise "enhanced" keyboards full of additional functionality. For what it's worth, my regular ol' keyboard and three-button mouse work great.As for hook-up/install, it couldn't have been easier. Making all the connections go where they are supposed to takes a little time just because you're dealing with so many cables but, once I got everything where it's supposed to go, it fired right up.In case it's helpful, the two computers I'm using it with are as follows:Dell Optiplex 380 (with video splitter dongle) running Windows 7 Professional (32-bit) service pack 1Dell Dimension 8400 with a dual-display after market nVidia video card running Ubuntu 10.10I did have to install some additional nVidia software to get Ubuntu going but it wasn't any particular hassle.The long and the short of it is, I'm really quite pleased with this KVM. The software, while not required, adds some functionality which is pretty handy and everything has been working as I'd expect since I installed it. If you don't see any updates to this review you can assume nothing has changed. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Works OK after some initial setup struggles - recommended for light use. *by S***O on Reviewed in the United States on September 9, 2014* I bought this KVM Switch that I could continue using my home laptop computer (DELL XPS 17) and my work laptop computer (DELL Latitude E6430) using the same keyboard and two monitors that I had in my home office.The unit is metal, heavy, and apparently well built. I preferred not having additional cables as I had most of the cables I needed for the installation. There was one DVI cable adapter that I purchased from monoprice. You will need to do very careful review of the connectors and cables required to ensure you have a trouble-free installation. There is quite a tangle of cables and you should consider purchasing some cable ties or Velcro straps to organize your wiring.The setup was a little troublesome but I managed to get through all the video settings without too much hassle. This may be a little difficult for the novice computer user but it’s not too bad.The only technical issue I have is that occasionally if I reboot a computer, the video does not show up correctly on reboot and there is no way to recover other than powering off the KVM switch. It would have been nice to have a power switch to do this but I have to reach around and disconnect the DC source to get the system working correctly. This is annoying and I am not sure why this is happening.Other than that the system works well. I am able to switch between my work and home computer without too much issue.I tend the use the buttons on the module to switch active computers since my Logitech keyboard does not have a SCROLL LOCK key and instead uses a combination of keys. That makes the keyboard switch a little cumbersome to use.I would recommend this to a friend if you have a similar requirement to what I did for my home office. I use this lightly and may not like it as much if I used it daily with the video reset issue that I described up above. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little product, only let down by it's lack of included cables *by C***B on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 7, 2015* Works perfectly, and easy to setup. I am using this to connect a Lenovo ThinkPad and an Intel NUC to a Dell monitor, both over DisplayPort. I am also sharing a pair of speakers using the 3.5mm connectors, a VOIP headset and an HD webcam. All function perfectly when using either client.My only reason for giving 4 stars is that the device comes without any cables at all (except power). I can understand not burdening the unit with the price of cables when you don't know what video output the customer will use, and it is clearly called out in the description that cables are not included. However in my opinion the unit should come with at least the necessary USB cables, as these will be the same for every installation. Charge a few pounds more to include them, but don't make me order extra cables separately - that's just annoying!Aside from that minor annoyance - can't fault the unit. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/1324876-startech-2-port-dual-dvi-usb-kvm-switch-with-audio](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/1324876-startech-2-port-dual-dvi-usb-kvm-switch-with-audio) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
