SpeaKa Professional SP-SWAP-500 2-Port HDMI KVM Matrix Switch with Audio, 4K UHD, USB 2.0 Hub, Metal, Black SP-13904372

Unlike ordinary KVM switches that merely toggle between computers, the SP-SWAP-500 acts as a true matrix, letting you route any of two HDMI sources to a single display while independently switching USB peripherals and audio. This dual-PC control hub eliminates the need for multiple keyboards, mice, and monitors, streamlining your workspace without compromising on 4K clarity.

In daily use

Connect two HDMI-equipped computers to the switch using the included USB and HDMI cables, then attach a single monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers. Press the front button or use a hotkey to instantly switch control between systems. The matrix architecture allows independent routing of video, USB, and audio, so you can, for example, view PC 1 while typing on PC 2. The 4K resolution support keeps images sharp on high-resolution displays, and HDCP 1.4 ensures compatibility with streaming services and Blu-ray content. The metal chassis dissipates heat effectively and withstands frequent handling, while USB power means one less cable cluttering your desk.
