Product Description

A space-efficient, reliable and cost-effective KVM switch for multi-PC users, StarTech.com's SV411K is the reliable solution for call center, help desk and SOHO environments and when integrating enterprise computer systems together. The SV411K is a computer management tool that allows you to control multiple computers from one source minimizing downtime by making connected computers and input devices available as soon as they are attached. A ready-to-use, out-of-the-box solution, the SV411K 4-port KVM switch kit comes complete with four reliable StarTech.com 3-in-1 cables to remove tangles and help organize your workspace. Cable ports are located at the rear of the SV411K providing easy, no-nonsense cable identification and organization. Ports are switched by pressing a button on the unit, or by entering a simple keyboard hot-key sequence. The StarView prevents boot-up errors by providing keyboard and mouse emulation to the non-selected PC. Its low cost, super small footprint design, and high 1920x1440 resolution display capability make this switch perfect for any application where reliability and cost-effectiveness are a necessity.

Very nice at 1920x1200. Earlier StarView KVMs could only handle 1600x1200, but this is very clean at the max resolution--modulo the quality of the analog signal coming from the graphics cards. (That is, if you're used to viewing DVI directly on a display panel, you'll find that different cards have quite different analog quality at high resolutions... and perhaps slightly blurred/ghosted by the KVM; real *digital* DVI signal switching KVMs are still very expensive.) Device is painless to set up, does away with the annoying "channel-changing chirp" of earlier StarView models. Also, by merging the PS/2 mouse and keyboard signals on the VGA connector to the KVM, cabling is much neater with this than for models that bring all the cables separately to the KVM.

It just works fine and stable. In addition to the keyboard shortcut sequences (ex. Ctrl,Ctrl,4 for PC4), you can just press the push button on the box to change the PC. The video are all good for all PCs with different resolutions. No annoying beeps. Good quality on the box and 4 cables. From my experience, this device will NOT work with USB. For example, if connect a USB mouse and then a converter to PS/2, then to this device, it won't work. Another example, if the PC only with USB port, you connect its cable (the one that connect to the PC) with a PS/2 to USB converter, then connect the USB end to the PC, it won't work either.

Just as advertised everything needed included, all works and went together easy. Delivery was great

Simple and Functional.......2006-10-29

It is very straight-forward and there are no frills or gimmicks. I've used this switch for a long time and I've never noticed an image problem. The keyboard shortcut works great and is intuitive (press Control twice, then the port number you want to switch to, e.g. Ctrl Ctrl 2). Very small too (sometimes, due to the thickness and weight of VGA cables, it can be _too_ light, though). But overall, this is a very good KVM solution.
