Two-Port DVI USB KVM Switch
The TRENDnet TK-204UK lets you operate two computers from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse, DVI monitor, microphone and speakers. It is built for desktop users who need to share one console between two DVI-equipped PCs or Macs without swapping cables. All required cables are included in the kit. Hot-plug and hot-key switching keep the workflow uninterrupted.
Thermals, Noise and Power Draw
The unit operates passively within a temperature range of 0ºC to 40ºC (32ºF to 104ºF) and humidity up to 90 per cent non-condensing. No internal fan is present, so the switch adds no audible noise to the workspace. Power is drawn from the connected computers through the USB links, eliminating the need for an external power adapter.
Bundled Accessories and Software
The package supplies every cable needed for dual-computer connection, including integrated DVI, USB and audio leads. Two bonus USB 2.0 console ports allow sharing of printers, storage devices or other peripherals without unplugging them. Independent audio and microphone switching lets you listen to music on one system while working on the other.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the two computers and the console, and which step is often missed?
Connect each computer using the supplied cables to the two USB type B ports and the two DVI-I ports with integrated audio and mic, then attach your USB keyboard, mouse, DVI monitor, speakers and microphone to the console side; the step often missed is plugging the 3.5 mm audio and mic cables into the correct colour-coded jacks on each PC.
What parts will need replacement after extended use?
The included USB and DVI cables are the items most likely to wear out; the switch itself has no moving parts or fan, so only the cables typically require replacement.
What limit appears first when the switch runs continuously at full load?
The operating temperature ceiling of 40 °C is the first limit reached under sustained use; keep the unit in a ventilated area so ambient temperature stays below that threshold.
