First of all, you will need a USB KVM. Your old PS/2 or serial KVM switch will NOT work. Several manufacturers supply 2-port and 4-port USB KVMs that work with our products. However, you need to choose a USB KVM that handles generic USB devices, rather than one expecting USB keyboard data on one cable and USB mouse data on a second cable: Iogear (cables included!) • IOGear Miniview USB 2-port KVM (Model GCS102U) • IOGear Miniview USB 4-port KVM (Model GCS104U) Unfortunately the IOGear Miniview II and III will NOT work because they expect the USB keyboard and USB mouse to connect thru separate cables. Our products send both keyboard and mouse data thru the same cable, which Miniview II and III cannot handle! For similar reasons, the Belkin OmniViewT SOHO USB 4-Port KVM Switch with Audio and OmniViewT SOHO USB 2-Port KVM Switch with Audio will NOT work without a separate USB keyboard to do the USB hot key switching!
