These devices enable seamless control of multiple computer systems through a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse setup, making them essential tools for both personal and professional environments.

The Belkin F1D5104T is a 4-port KVM switch, allowing users to connect and control up to four computers with ease. It features a compact design that is ideal for home and small office setups.
