Can 2 switches be connected to the same computer and linked to 6 different keys?

yes, but when you're programming them, best to only have 1 plugged in at a time. I've used 2 switches simultaneously under Linux.

Yes if they have separate switches. I don't know if they both run off the same switch. Probably not the answer you want to hear, but the best I can come up with.

If you're planning on sharing your keyboard between two devices the answer is no, this y cable will not work because of the very nature of usb. One USB port will connect to and discover one device at a time. You will need a usb switch to share one usb peripheral such as a keyboard between two devices like a computer and a media center device for instance. Hope this helps.

Yes. I am using one right now with a Logitech wireless mouse and keyboard. This KVM switch works.

YES, surely: I have 2 computer's tower w/male plugs to the [2 button switch box]

Form what I understand (and I do NOT know computers) there is a switch you need to buy so that you can do so. I had the same question for my IT friend, and that was his answer to me. Good luxk

That's a good question. I only have the keyboard but the key board alone uses one USB port so my guess would be 2 USB Ports for the 2 together

You can set each switch to have its own unique code via the dip switches on them. That way they do not interfere with each other.

Hi blugirl. That's a good question. That would depend on how close the switches are, but yes there's a possibility that would happen. We suggest you set them farther apart from each other as much as possible.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking. I have it connected where two computers share one printer. You have to press the button on the switch depending on which computer is using the printer at the time. If you are thinking of having two computers using two printers, then I am not sure if it would work. Maybe the vendor who is selling the switch could answer that for you.

No. My installer said only one main controller can be used, but up to 4 keypads can be paired with it.

I use the switches on the KVM. This is not a smart switch. I use it for four computers at work without any issues.

4 switches each with 2 positions. This leads to quite a few switch combinations, so maybe try various switch positions.

Yes, you can. You will plug one computer in to PC1 and the other one in to PC2. There is a button on top of the switch that you will have to press to indicate which computer is printing.

Yes. It enables you to change with any kinsey key. You must have the original key in order to reprogram another key

Sure. The driver is always loaded. You can bind the four switches to anything you like.

the keyboard and the mouse run on the same USB connector. You do not need another to connect either.
