AV Access KVM Switch Dock 2 Monitors 2 Laptops, 4K KVM Switch Dual Monitor, 2 USB-C MST Ports, 60W PD for Each PC, 1G Ethernet, EDID Emulation, 2K@144Hz, 1080P@240Hz, Ideal for Home Office & Gaming

I needed a KVM switch to drive x3 monitors from both a work laptop and a Mac Studio. The product info says that the D23 only works with desktops and DP connections, so I was a little reticent to purchase, but took the chance. On arrival it didn't work - only two monitors and many peripherals not connecting. I emailed the AV Access team who came back to me within 24 hours with solutions. (For those with similar setups: 1/ connecting the D23's USB-B inputs to the computers (cable supplied) in addition to the DP inputs solved the peripherals issue, and 2/ to resolve the issue with the monitor connected through HDMI, I replaced my passive DP>HMDI cable, with a £25 Startech active DP>HDMI adaptor). Now everything works - and it's amazing! Being able to switch at a click of a button all three monitors (+audio adaptor/mic +webcam +Stream deck +prompter) is game-changing. The device itself has a high build quality, and looks nice on my desk. I may still invest in the clicker button. The service from AV Access was quick and friendly (thanks Johnny and James). I got the feeling that they genuinely cared to solve my issue, and was left in no doubt that if not resolved there would be no problem returning the item.

Since covid, I must have tried every permutation to get a convenient home working setup that easily switches between a work PC and home mac. Every solution to date has had compromises that niggle on a daily basis. Finally I have a working setup with 3 * 24" IPS screens, webcam, wireless headset, wireless keyboard and wireless mouse that switch between a mac mini and work laptop with a single button. All inputs and outputs are to the back of the switch box and I've got multiple devices connecting in via an unpowered USB hub so this keeps the desk environment uncluttered and cable free. To make the user experience even better, switching is possible via keyboard shortcuts. I could move the switch box out of sight but it's handy to have USB sockets on the desk for occasional keyboard/phone charging. The only thing that would make this better is if all video connections were HDMI. If you don't have displayport connectors on your source device (or in the case of the mac mini, the third output device needs to be USB), most converter cables are directional and in the wrong way. Whether you're looking to get a mac or work laptop connected to 3 displays, a USBC hub with 3 displayport connectors appears to be a good solution. Have found HDMI to displayport cables (both powered and unpowered) to be unreliable.

Just arrived yesterday and I’m already very impressed. It does everything it says it would, plus one or two things it didn’t say it could! The switching is seamless, the elimination of window resizing, sharing of peripherals - including a bluetooth mouse that is now shared across all devices (connected to the unifying receiver plugged into the Dock). One thing the product description doesn’t tell you is that it will support an ultra wide monitor at 3440 x 1440. I was forced into buying a new hub after my old one died, and now I wish I’d had a 2 laptop hub a long time ago. Well done AV Access 👏

I was given a laptop from my work, and I am working mostly from home. I have a very specific setup (monitor/keyb/mouse/chair/desk/sound) which I wanted to keep using with my work laptop, so I decided to buy the iDock. Most important factor was the ability to display 3440x1440@165Hz via the DP port, and it was the best choice at that range. Good quality, as it is described, no problems in general, works fine. However it misses few features that would be nice to see in future models. -No power switch. Apart from the power consumption, which is low, but still, why being on 24/7? Also, both my keyb/mouse are LED illuminated, therefore they are on 24/7. Fortunately they are in my office, but if someone have their PC/Laptop in their bedroom, that could be a problem. -LAN is always connected, even without a cable attached. This wouldn't be an issue in most cases, however my laptop is heavily locked by my employer, and when I connect it to the iDock, reverts the connection there instead of WiFi, and I cannot switch back (company policy). I had to ask my support to disable the USB-to-LAN adapter in Windows to properly work, as there is no way to disabled on the iDock -When I have both computers connected and on, while one has two monitors connected but the laptop just the main, and I switch it, all windows from my main screen, on my personal PC, move to the secondary monitor. This means that the signal sent to a connected PC when you switch to another, is that this monitor is disconnected, which again, is not a good practice. It shouldn't change anything, just "hide" the signal. Overall it is a very good solution, even though it is missing the above features. I am not sure if any other has them in this price range.

I'm interfacing with Apple monitors via USB-C (Thunderbolt) connections. Despite testing multiple certified cables and a range of compatible adapters across both devices, I’ve been unable to establish a functional display connection. If you have a similar issue and found a solution, I would be happy to discuss further with you.

I’m happy I didn’t cheap out on this and go for something of a poorer quality. This is a formidable device, a high build quality and brilliant signal quality. It happily powers my smaller work laptop from the USB-C (not my gaming laptop though, but I knew this) I also bought the wired button switch which makes a huge difference. Overall, excellent. No regrets at all about the purchase.

I’ve been using this KVM for a a couple of weeks now multiplexing between 2 monitors and my Windows PC and my Macbook Pro, and overall I’m pretty happy with it. Here’s a quick breakdown of my experience so far: Form Factor: - The design is sleek and modern, which I appreciate. It actually looks nice on my desk, unlike a lot of competitor brands out there. At about twice the height of my previous AVAccess KVM (visible on the bottom left in the picture), it’s a little too tall to fit under my desk stand though — I wish it were just a bit shorter. - One minor annoyance is with the supplied cables — unplugging the middle or bottom cables is tricky. You have to press a release lock on top of the cable head, but it’s hard to do that without first unplugging the top cables. Features & Performance: - Switching inputs is fast — faster than my old AVAccess KVM, which is great. There's no flickering so far, which was an issue with some other KVMs I’ve tried - I’m a fan of all the extra ports: headphone jack, SD card slot, USB ports on the back for a webcam or monitor hub. My old KVM didn’t have a rear USB port, so I had to awkwardly route my webcam wire around the unit. This is a small but really nice improvement for wire management. - One feature I miss: a power button. It’d be nice to have the option to turn it off without unplugging it. - I haven't had it for very long yet, so time will tell how reliable it is. If it breaks down before the warranty is over, I will definitely update my review with my experience. Compatibility: - It’s DisplayPort (DP) only if you’re using a laptop, which is a bit of a pain for MacBook users like me. I had to buy some Thunderbolt-to-DP cables. I get why DP was chosen, but it would’ve been nice if 2-3 adapters were included in the box. - My Apple keyboard works fine in every USB slot except the dedicated USB 1.1 keyboard slot. It worked fine in the USB 1.1 port on my older AVAccess KVM. Sometimes I have to play USB port roulette a few times to get it to connect properly. - Occasionally, it seems to interfere with my WiFi. Even though I’m not using the Ethernet port, I’ve had to restart my computer or switch inputs back and forth to get my connection back. - One more downgrade from the previous model: no dedicated mic input port this time. Not a dealbreaker, but something I noticed. Overall, this is a really solid KVM switch with a lot of thoughtful improvements over my previous model.

Excellent unit. I have two laptops each with a USB-C connection that I needed a KVM switch for. Seems this is an oddball combination, but this KVM switch nails it. Good size, clean and solid. I also got the remote switch and it sits right beside my keyboard for easy and quick switching. I anything, I wish there was an additional USB port with power on the front to connect a device that needs charging. If you have two laptops with USB-C connections that support the necessary DisplayPort protocols, this KVM switch is for you. Note: There are other reviews noting about an inability to use the same wired network connection (can only be used for one device, the KVM can't switch that). Network protocols could never support that function to start with, so it's not really a negative on the switch.

Funciona perfeitamente. É bastante sólido e tem um click satisfatório.

Received my package quickly from Amazon. I do have another AV Access device called the iDockB30 but it's good for two desktops and a laptop and I wanted the one that can connect to two laptops to have as my work keyboard-video-mouse (KVM). It's easy to set up. Just two USB-C cables that go to the corresponding ports on the back of the iDockC20 and power. The other ends of the USB-C cables will go to the respective laptops. I'm a big Lenovo ThinkPad fan so I have a ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 AMD from my work and a ThinkPad P14s Gen 5 AMD as my personal daily driver. Turned on the unit and works well. Though the T14 had a little issue connecting but once I rebooted it worked fine. I'm able to press the switch on the docking unit to switch between the two with no issue. Looking over the build it looks solid, and the ports are labeled clearly so you know what device to plug into what. There are a decent number of ports in the back and the SD card reader is convenient to have since at my work place, I sometimes need to use the cards to read any external data. I tested out the network connectivity between the two by switching and it doesn't seem to lose the connection which is nice. Since the power distribution is 60W I would only recommend the KVM for use on business class laptops like the Lenovo ThinkPads. It would be advisable that if you are going to be connecting a gaming laptop on it like a Asus Strix G16 or a Lenovo Legion i7 having USB-C ports it will provide enough power if you plan to game on it. I would only use it for productivity work. I hope the next iteration of the USB-C ports on the docking unit will be like USB 4 or Thunderbolt 4/5 but for right now it suits to what I need to it do at my workplace. I do have dual monitors, and they worked great on them. No issue whatsoever since the monitors I have are 27-inch 1080P and a 32-inch 1440P. I have used it for quite a number of days, and I personally like the device. It is working great so far for me and does what I need it to do. Since I do IT work, I like the fact that I can plug in a second laptop and run through items without having to plug in a monitor etc.

Don’t know yet. Haven’t got the switch to work with tbd usbc connection
