| Even thou this switch isn't the best looking or the most convenient KVM, it does work!! A better design would be to stack all the ports in the rear. I'd rather have an ugly switch that works than a pretty one that doesn't. |

This unit has been unreliable in a mixed Windows environment. Using XP(ok), Vita and Win 7, with laptop and desktops. Will work with all connected one time then not the next. VGA is the problem- audio works consistently
across the units connected. |
| OK for Winxp But Doesn't Work on an Imac | 2009-12-21 | 3 / 5 |

I set this up on an old PC and a laptop. It worked OK.
Then I decided I would like to use it with my iMac serving the monitor function. (I have a monitor adapter.) Well, I couldn't get the KVM switch to work although it is supposed to work with an iMac. I am running winxp and snow leopard on the imac.
So I went to [...]. This version of the KVM switch was not listed on the website. Great. Registered. Tried to fill in a help desk ticket so I could get written instructions on how to do it. However, I could not complete the request for help because the webpage wanted additional personal information, but it would not let me type the information it wanted into the web form. Therefore it would not let me ask for help. Great.
I'll have to call tomorrow but this does not bode well for customer support. I am not up to a long phone session tonight.
I am fast losing confidence in Trendnet. |

I have used many KVM brands over the years. Trendnet has been the most reliable of the brands the use a software(keyboard)switch. When using a keyboard switch on ANY KVM product you should consider using a KVM with a mechanical switch as a alternate backup. If you have ever been in a position the your time was critical and then your KVM software switch does not switch, you know what I mean.
The only problem I have found with the Trendnet is the MTBF seems to be around 24 months. However may sample size is really to small to tell (8). That being said the failure seems to be limited to the audio channel switching.

| This product came with all the cables and was very easy to setup and works very well. My only complaint is the port/cable locations on this device. It is on all four sides (front, sides, and back) of this device which causes you to be unable to hide the cables. However, the price that this device is sold at I think makes up for its short comings. |
