Description
This Hybrid KVM Switch enables users to switch between a USB Type-A and DisplayPort-enabled desktop and a USB Type-C (DP Alt-Mode) enabled laptop, to share a keyboard, mouse, audio input/output devices, and a single 4K 60Hz DisplayPort monitor.
Hassle-Free Setup
The KVM switch is bus powered and features built-in DisplayPort, USB-A, USB-C, and 3.5mm Audio Input/Output cables. This ensures compatibility and performance between the KVM switch, monitors, and peripherals - without the need to select and purchase the cables required for those connections.
Compatibility
The 2-port KVM switch is compatible with all operating systems, including Windows, macOS, ChromeOS, and Linux. The KVM works with all hardware platforms including Intel, AMD, and Apple M1/M2. The USB-C host port works with USB-C, USB4, Thunderbolt 3, and Thunderbolt 4 laptops. If the desktop does not have a 4-position 3.5mm port the included 3.5mm Headset Adapter ensures compatibility out of the box.
Intuitive Control
The KVM switch offers two options to switch between hosts - a remote push button or hotkey commands, using the downloadable software. The remote push button includes a 1.5m cable for optimal placement in the setup. Independent audio switching can be achieved through the software, utilizing keyboard shortcuts (i.e., hotkeys), ensuring uninterrupted audio when switching between host devices.

Customer Reviews
David
Prompt and friendly contact. Super fast, reliable service. To be recommended. Thank you very much.
Padraig
Needed a fairly obscure part for part of the power cable on my laptop plug. Delighted to be able to get it from ValuPC. As always a simple process. Ordered and received 2 days later.
Paweł
I have ordered a TV that I couldn't get anywhere else in Ireland and Valu PC had it. Delivery took 2 days and Jim was extremely nice and helpful with everything and even delivered it to me himself. I will definitely be ordering from him again.
Leona
Delivery arrived within a day - and it was Christmas week! Headphones were really competitively priced. Delighted with them. A hassle free online purchase. Very happy with my experience.
Stephen
Wouldn't normally bother with review's but I was really impressed with ValuPC, despite never having heard of them before. While googling a specific laptop model I noticed that they're cheaper than other psychical stores by over €200. I ordered the laptop late one and 2 - 3 it was at my door. Excellent service fast and reliable and have already recommended to others.
James
Was going to go to an English chain of computer shop, googled and seen valupc. I ordered a new laptop and Monitor late Sunday night and had them in my hands on Wednesday morning with everything working as expected. I would recommend Valupc as they are Irish and defiantly good value, will be back in the future.
Pavlo
great deals on the market, which seemed sketchy, but decided to order a monitor anyway. Was delighted to know that I was wrong, The monitor came in perfect condition, nothing bad to say whatsoever. Even had some problems with the delivery and they helped me out! It's a great site to buy electronic things of off, don't think twice about it.
Harry
I was shopping laptops across multiple retailers mainly the typical big ones and went searching laptop sales and found VALU PC. Their laptop prices / specs etc were easily beating the rest so looked into it further.
I even spoke to the owner, had a great, friendly chat and found they were more local than i thought and he guarenteed me 2 days delivery to the door and that's what I got!
