Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The Iogear DVI KVMP Switch GCS1762 switch charts a revolutionary new direction in KVM switch functionality by combining a 2-port USB KVM switch with USB peripheral sharing capability at the same time as it provides an interface for a digital monitor (DVI). As a KVM switch, it allows users to access two computers from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse, and monitor, and any peripherals such as printers and scanners. The GCS1762's independent (asynchronous) switching feature, allows the KVM focus to be on one computer while the USB peripheral focus is on another. This eliminates the need to purchase a separate USB hub as well as the need to purchase separate stand-alone peripheral sharers - such as printer servers, modem splitters, etc. The GCS1762 further improves on previous designs with DVI (Digital Video Interface) connectors, and the transfer of keyboard and mouse data to the computers via a fast, reliable USB connection. Computer selection via front panel switches and hot keys LED display for easy status monitoring Auto Scan Mode for monitoring all computers Easy installation Hot pluggable - add or remove computers for maintenance without powering down the switch Supports Windows and Mac host systems Video Resolution - Up to 1920 x 1200 On Line LED - 2 x Orange USB Peripherals LED - 2 x Green Selected LED - 2 x Orange Housing Case - Metal Microphone - 2 x Microphone jack Monitor - 2 x DVI-I ports (female) Audio - 2 x Stereo earphone jack Keyboard & Mouse - 2 x USB Type B sockets System Requirements - A DVI Monitor, A USB style mouse, A USB style keyboard, Optional Microphone and speakers, A DVI port from computer, Type A USB port, Windows 98, 98SE, ME, 2000, XP, Mac OS 8.6 or greater, Linux, UNIX, Audio - Requires 2-piece powered speaker system Dimensions - Depth 7.87 (19.99 cm) x Height 1.65 (4.19 cm) x Width 2.93 inch (7.44 cm) Unit Weight - 1.76 pounds

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Mac DVI Users Stay Away from This Product
Needed this to switch a 22" Apple Cinema Display between a G5 and G4 (server). After some pre-sales questions said the product would work with my system, I purchased the switch (from Amazon), a VGA/DVI adapter for the G4 and hooked it all up. Wouldn't work -- turns out I needed a video card with a DVI port. Fair enough -- another purchase. Still didn't work.

Would work with one computer, but trying to switch to the other shut down my first computer abruptly. Booting with the second computer, ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - exceeds my expectations
It seems the world of DVI and USB KVM switches is a fairly small one. I've had plenty of problems with KVMs in the past, so I was pleasantly surprised when I found that this one worked as advertised and even included a feature I didn't even know I wanted.

I have this hooked up to a Thinkpad T61 running Ubuntu Hardy Heron with an Advanced Mini-Dock and a Core 2 Duo Macbook running Leoapard, all connected to an Apple 23" Cinema Display, a Happy Hacker Keyboard, and a Logitech TrackMan Wheel trackball ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not Bad...uhhh...basically the cheape$t one around...
Good...very good...exactly what people are looking for...$199.99 @ Fry's electronics!!!! good god those Heathens - amazon order takes about 4 seconds to arrive (voila!)

THE only thing I HATE - You must select the screen (button 1 or 2) first before your computer boots up - otherwise, your Mac or PC will have default small desktop - thus destroying any Icon Workflow one may have developed! maybe I'm missing a secret setting on the PC that says "Never arrange Desktop"



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - PC/Mac KVM
Got this device to be able to help transition from Windows PC to Mac. Was helpful in getting rid of the second monitor but lots of trouble when switching with video resolution. Was useful but not worth the $$$ spent.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Works for me
I bought this as a replacement for another IOGear KVM with PS/2 mouse/keyboard and Analog Video (was forced to because of new PC purchase). I was worried about whether or not this would work how I needed it to, as KVM switches for me have always been hit-and-miss. I decided to get this one because the IOGear brand has seemed to be the best working brand for me in the past. My two requirements were 1.) cables had to be 6 ft. long, and 2.) hotkey function must work because the actual switch box will be inaccessible. ... Read More
