What customers say
Customers value this Gefen KVM for its robust build quality and essential reliability in handling high resolution Dual Link DVI switching, often necessary when lesser switches fail. Its professional grade construction inspires confidence for demanding video tasks. However, the premium price is offset by operational frustrations. The primary concerns center on peripheral compatibility, with users reporting intermittent keyboard and mouse recognition issues that sometimes require a power cycle. While video fidelity is excellent, switching speed is occasionally slower than anticipated. Ultimately, users see this as a necessary, high quality tool for specific technical needs, though its complexity demands patience and troubleshooting.
