Steetek USB 3.0 Displayport KVM Switch Dual Monitor - 4K@60Hz Dual-PC

In this review the Steetek USB 3.0 Displayport KVM Switch Dual Monitor is evaluated for users who need to control two computers with a single keyboard, mouse and two displays. The bottom line: it is a practical, compact solution for setups that require dual monitor KVM switching with high-resolution output, and its support for 4K@60Hz makes it especially attractive for productivity and light creative work. Installation is plug-and-play, and the hardware button provides a simple, reliable way to switch between systems.

Key Features

• Dual monitor control: Lets one keyboard and mouse control two separate computers across two DisplayPort monitors for extended or mirrored desktop use.
• 4K@60Hz support: Handles resolutions up to 3840x2160 at 60Hz per monitor, providing crisp, smooth output for high-resolution workflows.
• USB 3.0 port: Includes one USB 3.0 port plus two USB 2.0 ports so shared peripherals and a high-speed device can be used without swapping cables.
• Simple button switching: Hardware button on the switch toggles between connected computers in about 2-4 seconds for straightforward control.
• EDID auto-adaptation: Automatically reads and adapts to display EDID so connected computers recognize supported resolutions and avoid common handshake issues.

Who It's For

This KVM is aimed at professionals and power users who maintain two desktop systems and need a reliable way to share two monitors and a set of USB devices. It fits well in a home office, small studio, or workstation environment where both machines support multi-display output and users value native DisplayPort performance.

Users who should look elsewhere include people who plan to use adapters or converters between signal types, since the unit is not recommended with adapters, and anyone who needs keyboard hotkey switching, because this model only supports button switching on the unit itself.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Supports true dual-monitor switching with DisplayPort and up to 3840x2160@60Hz output for both screens.
• Includes a USB 3.0 port for fast peripheral sharing alongside two USB 2.0 ports.
• EDID auto-adaptation improves compatibility with a range of operating systems and display setups.
• Plug-and-play build and a physical button make switching simple and predictable.

Cons

• Does not support hotkey keyboard switching; switching requires the physical button on the device.
• Not recommended for use with adapters or converters, so mixed-port systems may need native DisplayPort outputs.
