I bought this LinksKey LDV-DM222AUSK about 10 years ago to run both my personal and business computer with one set of peripherals. I used it with my dual 27\" monitors, Logi MK545 wireless keyboard and mouse combo, printer, and a USB nano stick to act as a drive available to both computers. I mention this because this KVM does a fine job at running 2x 27\" 1080p displays. Also, it\'s difficult to find a KVM that will carry the signal of a wireless dongle - or, at least, it used to be difficult. Another thing that was difficult to find was a KVM that would keep the monitors connected (Active Sync Replication?) to the PC from which you switched away. This made switching PCs a 1 or 2 second affair. Without it, you\'d have to wait for the \"Found New Hardware\" sound, and then wait some more while the monitors re-install! Not only would the monitors stay connected,but so would my wireless keyboard and mouse!Switching was so easy, I could play online poker...

The LDV-DM202AUSK (Silver buttons) is Single-link (1920 x1200)
There are plenty of cheaper KVMs that do the trick, but they force concession. I learned the really expensive way and I can attest that the following manufacturer provided info is legit:
- Support Dual Link High Digital resolution up to 2560 x1600
- All-time full DDC/EDID emulation for video compatibility and stability
- True Transparent USB (TTU) Emulation technology with an integrated ASIC
- Full driver support for all types of USB keyboard and mouse
- Two USB 2.0 hub ports for sharing high speed USB device
- User-configurable simultaneous/Independent switching
- Cables included are USB Audio DVI-D Integrated Combo x2,and DVI-D x2
- Cable length about 6 feet
I have a sit/stand desk so the cable length was inadequate - I had to make my own cables. I included 2x 10\' DVI-HDMI cables, which I did not make, so you can raise your desk without the risk of mass disorganization. Perhaps now needless to say, all the original cables are included and sealed in their unused condition. And the two that connect to the PC are combo cables - clean and
