Blue Switch Keyboard

Purchased the blue switch before this and was just too clicky for me. This one is a perfect tactical keyboard, responsive, comfortable, and beautiful.

I am a software engineer, I brought this for work. I do a lot of typing for work. I loved typing on this keyboard so badly. Cherry MX blue switch is really good for typing with that clicky feedback, feels so satisfying. Even though people are talking about how noisy the blue switch could be and how it is not for working environment because it annoys coworkers. I found this particular keyboard construction not noisier than coworkers normal keyboard. Probably thanks to the metal plate and heavy sturdy body. It is like a guitar without its wooden soundboard body wouldn't make much sound because it is only a string. Yes this key board is relatively quiet for daytime office usage. Cons: 1. I wish we have more choices on angles. You can solve this eventually. 2. I brought a wrist rest pad for this keyboard, keyboard is thick, with metal edge making my wrist a little bothered without the pad. Again, not something really serious.

The brown switch feels much better than the blue switch.

This IOGEAR GCS110-4 4-Port KVMP switch is my first purcahse of this type of gear...should have bought one years ago. I had checked out one of the other brands, but the manufacturer's web-site had the same photo and description for two models, very confusing. I am using this switch with three computer, Win7, Win8.1 and a Linux rig. I keep the fourth port open for testing other computers, no need to connect one being tested to a separate keyboard and mouse setup. This switch allows me to easily switch between computers via keyboard shortcuts. I have a Logitech Keyboard and Mouse which share a single wireless USB dongle, plugging the dongle into the keyboard USB port of the monitor area of the switch allows me to use the keyboard and mouse on all computers. I did have to uninstall the Logitech software which allowed for custom keyboard layout (volume up/down, next track, etc.) as it seemed to conflict with the way the KVMP switch emulated Keyboard and Mouse Control...not an issue for me in this case. I am not a hard-core gamer, thus do not have a mouse with 92 buttons on it..more of a FPS and Flight Sim guy here. I like the fact that I can switch the keyboard/mouse, Vidoe and USB separately from the audio, that is I can have music playing on one computer, switch the Keyboard/Mouse, Video, and USB to another computer and still hear the music from the first computer. I have all my external drives and printers connected directly to the Win7 computer working as a server for all my data. I have a USB hub connected to the KVMP input which is accessed by whichever computer I am using for such things as my web-cam, joystick, multimedia card reader, and ID CAC Card Reader. I started taking IT classes and now I can easily do remote access, learned how to access Windows Shared Folders from the Linux box...and more, having the computers side by side with one control system is a Godsend. I would recommend this switch to anyone considering such a purchase.

It connected my ps/2 keyboard to switch box so I could use my computer switch.

I use this to switch the monitor, mouse, keyboard and sound between 2 computers. It's been working flawlessly.

The bright blue light on the front is the on-off switch. I almost didn't buy this due to other reviews saying there was no switch. I received mine 2/9/2022 for a point of reference. I was also expecting typical mechanical drive sounds from it, but it is very quiet! I ran some random file transfer tests and it averaged round 225 MB/s writing to the 10TB d2 through my USB-C port with very little variance. I did laugh when I saw how bright and distracting the blue light in the on-off switch was once it started flashing to show drive activity. The main casing is aluminum and very sturdy and it has many small rubber feet on the bottom to isolate it from your desk top. For three bills, this is a great purchase.

I Have put this in line with my Teac which has already has a built in preamp but gives you the option of direct line so as a experiment I bought one of these guys it gives me control and has vastly improved sound quality would recommend it and it will go nicely with my tube amp currently running with pioneer receiver.O to the guys about power switch put a small in line switch on to the power cord just behind the unit simple and for the bright blue led gently apply a small amount of blue acrylec paint till you dull the brightness down simple

Works fine! Easy to setup! The blue lighted switches are a great plus eliminating the need to disconnect and reconnect the USB connectors to switch the device off / on. The light indicates that the switch is ON.
