Cable Matters launches a new USB‑C KVM switch that lets users control two computers from a single desk. The device supports USB‑C or Thunderbolt hosts, shares one HDMI monitor, keyboard, mouse, USB peripherals, and a charging source. Designed for hybrid workstations and content creators, it offers a tidy, consolidated workspace.

Key to the switch is its 4‑way switching capability. Users can toggle between hosts with a front‑panel button, an RF remote, a keyboard hotkey, or mouse gestures. Options three and four work only on Windows or macOS, giving power users quick, flexible access.

Charging performance sets this model apart. Equipped with a 180 W adapter, the switch supplies up to 100 W to one laptop or 85 W to each of two laptops simultaneously. The 4K 60 Hz HDMI output keeps video crisp, while two 10 Gbps USB‑A and two USB‑C ports handle high‑speed peripherals and external SSDs for video editing.

With its combined switching, charging, and high‑bandwidth connectivity, the Cable Matters 2‑computer KVM addresses a growing need for compact, power‑efficient workstations. Retailers now carry the unit, allowing professionals to streamline setups without sacrificing performance today.
