Four PCs on your desk and you're still re-plugging the keyboard every time you need to check the other machine. The CS1734B ends that. One keyboard, one mouse, one monitor, four machines – switch between them with a button on the front, a hotkey, the on-screen menu, or a mouse click. Whichever feels fastest at 7:45 am when you're already running late.
It's VGA for video, up to 2048 × 1536 with DDC2B, so your monitor doesn't go blank when you hop between ports. Video DynaSync stores the EDID data and handles the handshake for you. No fiddling with resolution settings mid-switch.
Built-in 2-port USB 2.0 hub means you've got room for a second mouse, a scanner, or a USB phone without hunting for a free port on the back of your PC. Audio's on board too – 2.1 surround sound with console audio jacks on the front panel, which is handy if you're on an IP phone call and need to swap machines without losing the line.
Four KVM cables are in the box. PS/2 or USB keyboard and mouse, your call. Works with Windows, Mac, and Sun. No drivers, no software, no firmware panic. Plug it in, press a button, done.
If your desk's been a four-monitor jumble and you just want one clean way to get between machines without losing your mind, this is the smallest, simplest fix that actually works
