I have two computers at my desk. A standard desktop PC, and my work laptop. Over the years I have tried and used several keyboard, video, mouse (KVM) switches. Up until this one they have all been based on the older PS/2 style connector for keyboards and mice. Today’s keyboards and mice are USB only and caused me to search for a new KVM switch.

The Belkin Flip is simple to use, inexpensive, and accomplishes what I need. I chose the wireless version with audio switching support. The KVM is completely hidden behind my desk, and all of the non-standard keys/features of my Microsoft Keyboard 4000 and Logitech MX Revolution mouse work perfectly.

One laptop. One desktop. One big monitor.

Laptops offer a great way to work – and play – almost anywhere. But sometimes you just don’t feel like sitting in front of a tiny display and cramped keyboard.

Thanks to Flip, you can now use your big monitor and full-sized keyboard for both your laptop and desktop computer.

Click. Flip.

It’s simple. Just place the remote anywhere on your desk and press to flip your monitor from one computer to the next.
