I love Anker products, and use them all over my home. When they offered to help take my workspace to the next level of course I had to check out their KVM switch! This allows me to use both monitors, plus my keyboard, mouse and SSD and other peripherals on both laptops without having to rearrange wires. I can switch from one laptop to the other with the click of a button. This is a pretty sweet setup!

Thanks for this video. I have been searching for a couple of days to find the right way to do this.

Just a heads-up, the Amazon link goes to the version of the switch for 1 desktop and 1 laptop. Amazon doesn't appear to sell the 2 laptop version. That being said, the Anker link work goes to the 2 laptop model. Great video, Shane! This will really help me out.

Awesome. Glad it helped. Thanks for the support

@TrevorDennis100 4 дня назад

That was really useful. I didn't know I could also share input devices like the mouse. I also have a Wacom tablet, Space Mouse and ShuttlePRO v2, so I guess I won't be sharing all of them via a KVM switch.

@CanadaSocial 4 месяца назад

I have the same device. It works well. I only wish they had both monitor one and monitor two outputs as HDMI and/or DP

does this work well with wireless mouse and keyboard? I have read that kvm have problems with wireless

@panagiotischantavaridis6080 16 часов назад

like before 2 months i bought a similar product of another company Delock 11485 (half price), i have many issues like screens going randomly black for a second, screen flickering and windows startup issues. I want to ask if someone (else than the owner) can confirm that this product does not have these problems.

@Eliezeraugust0 3 дня назад

what refresh rate do you get on both machines?

Thanks!

@tlongsway 3 месяца назад

Great setup and I bought the device based upon your review and instructions. What I don't like about it is that my MAC will only support a mirrored setup, not an extended screen setup and I see it's the same for you. How can I get around that?

@skumancer 2 месяца назад

You can't get around it, it's not the KVM's fault, but macOS that doesn't support Multi-Stream Transport.

I bought the Anker 553 hub last month. It worked great in giving me 2 extra monitors for a month. But this morning my laptop is not seeing the 2 external monitors. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the hub and I tried restarting the laptop with the hub connected. Neither resolved it. When I plug each monitor directly into the hdmi of the laptop they are immediately recognized. Any idea what else I can do to resolve this?

@PaulJBaccash 2 месяца назад

Same exact thing happened to me.

It seems you have connected two Thunderbolt devices to your KVM switch. However, how can I connect one Thunderbolt laptop and one old PC to achieve the same functionality?

@valiente4153 3 месяца назад

Yes same question here!

@damientech88 3 месяца назад

Anker 553 does PC+laptop. Anker 554 does 2xlaptop

@deletedchanneI 2 месяца назад

Does it support 144hz rates on 1440p monitors? They don’t state it clear on landing page, but bandwidth googling says Anker 553 might support it 🤔

@Wolfehz0r Месяц назад

Highly doubt it, seems like barely any KVM switches do - or if they do, they're $500 and up.

What about sharing a keyboard between pc and Mac? Mac has keys like “cmd” “opt” but windows keyboard doesn’t

@jaknudsen 5 месяцев назад

Most (all?) wireless keyboards are compatible with both macOS and Windows.

Does it work for two desktop PCs (two hdmi) for dual monitor setup? Thanks

Ofc

@TruthSeeker_7 3 месяца назад

It looks like that gaming monitor would have a built in KVM as well.

@deletedchanneI 2 месяца назад

looks like only Gigabyte M series have KVM switch now, but doesn’t support Power Delivery at 60w+ for Type-C device

@flapsigaar 5 месяцев назад

You can also create a KVM switch for your existing monitor. Every monitor from the past 10 years has a V switch and an USB hub. You can get a USB switch connected between your two pc's and monitor (as USB HUB to KM). I got mine from Aliexpress for 5 dollars, way better than this Anker business. You only have to press two buttons instead of one switching KVM :P

60Hz for Windows and 30Hz for Mac. What a deal breaker. This, plus wireless charger on top of it, free USB-C port for my monitor, and a fingerprint reader. Take my money.

Trash device. There is a huge delay of 10 secs. And there is sleep-wake issue with macbook. I am returning this. Disappointed.

@yeezyhouse 2 месяца назад

Can you explain a little more about the issue you are facing. I was considering but was worried the switching won’t be seamless

@antivirusapartment7517 2 месяца назад

@@yeezyhouseIf you are looking for instant switching you need to look at software based solutions like Synergy. Unfortunately, I cannot install third party apps on my work laptop. I am still exploring other options. If you need hardware solution then look for DDM enabled KVMs.

@justinfournier7895 Месяц назад

Your issue is that you are using a Mac. Apple is an awful company and produce ridiculous priced products that don’t function well for advanced use.

@antivirusapartment7517 29 дней назад

@@justinfournier7895Same issue with PC. I haven’t found any KVM switch that is fast like software solutions. I wish I vould use software solution but my work laptop doesn’t allow.
