Q: 2. Does this transmit audio? All other adapters on the market don't seem to.

A: The manufacturer has not published the length of the cable connecting the button to the Sabrent 4-Way USB 2.0 Sharing Switch.

A: That could work but this item only has 2 x USB Type-B USB 3.1 for devices so one of the items would be left out. Besides that it would work perfectly for this purpose.

[4] all pros: predictable switching between systems, long term reliability, outgrew some of my 2x4 switches and did not think twice about getting the 4x4 switch, it was an automatic decision. 5

[Bus Powered] I'm using it to share a USB docking station between two laptops, a dell and an HP. Th docking station has two monitors, a mouse, and a keyboard. It seems to be working really well. 5

[0 to 80%] With COVID-19 upon us, like many people in software engineering I'm now working from home. My home has a fantastic PC with a mechanical keyboard, mouse and larger monitor which I wanted to use with my Macbook Pro. Additionally, in the future I might have a gaming rig and a few dedicated Linux boxes, and this device delivered on all fronts. The little separate button is fantastic, I was able to drop the actual USB switch below my desk and only be left with the little button on my desk. You do have to round robin between the inputs, so having a good mental memory of what input number you're on and which input number you're trying to get to is important. While a KVM can theoretically provide a little bit more of an integrated solution between devices AND video, the framerate limits of KVMs coupled with some uncertainty regarding their ability to work with adaptive vsync specifications (gsync or freesync) left me a little leery of making what would be a more substantial investment. In the end, this solution works fantastically well and obviously won't ever present framerate limitations or introduce video latency. 5
