USB C KVM Switch 2 Computers 1 Monitor - 4K@60Hz with 100W PD

Our review of this USB C KVM switch finds it best suited for professionals who use two USB-C laptops or desktops and want a single 4K monitor, keyboard and mouse without cable swapping. The biggest reason to consider it is the combination of true 4K@60Hz HDMI output and 100W PD pass-through, which keeps a laptop charged while switching inputs. Setup is straightforward for systems with DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt ports, and customers report reliable connectivity and no perceptible lag when moving between machines.

Key Features

• Dual computer switching: Switch between two computers with a single button to share one monitor and one set of USB peripherals without unplugging cables.
• 4K@60Hz HDMI output: Delivers crisp, smooth video at 4K@60Hz for accurate color and fluid motion useful for media work and multitasking.
• 100W PD charging: Supplies power to a connected laptop while using the switch so devices stay charged during long sessions.
• Three USB 2.0 ports: Share keyboard, mouse, and other peripherals at up to 480Mbps transfer speeds for everyday accessories.
• Wide compatibility: Works with macOS, Windows and Linux systems that have USB-C with DP Alt Mode or Thunderbolt 3/4/5 ports, simplifying multi-device desks.
• Plug-and-play: No drivers required and quick setup makes it practical for home offices and small studios.

Who It's For

This KVM is aimed at remote workers, creatives, and developers who operate two USB-C computers and want to consolidate a single 4K monitor and USB peripherals. It is particularly helpful for users with Thunderbolt 3/4/5 or DP Alt Mode capable laptops who need uninterrupted charging through the hub while they work.

It is not for users whose laptops lack DP Alt Mode or who require multiple independent monitor outputs from each computer. Also avoid it if you need USB 3.x speeds from the peripheral ports, since the product provides USB 2.0 ports only.
