Another big plus is the MiniView's capability to provide audio support, it allows you to share your multimedia speakers among the two connected computers. Our patented VSE Video Signal Enhancement® technology provides rich, 32-bit color at resolutions up to 2048 x 1536. This self-powered KVM switch features the unique USB mouse and keyboard emulation to ensure smooth operation, as well as support for Plug-n-Play monitors and most wheel mice. Introducing the two port MiniView™ Micro USB PLUS KVM switch from IOGEAR – the simplest way to simultaneously run and share audio among two computers with a single USB keyboard, monitor and USB mouse. These USB devices/peripherals are accessed and shared across the computer systems connected to the KVMP this also allows you to connect a USB hub for multiple peripheral sharing. A KVMP enables USB interface computer systems to utilize external USB devices/peripherals. KVMP is an acronym for keyboard, video (monitor), mouse, and peripheral. These KVM switches can use the Internet to manage power supply and control the start up or shut down of PCs. Due to environmental needs, multiple ports, high-level KVM switches are designed to 1U or 2U in size and can be installed on the server rack. Some of these low port number KVMs do not need an external power supply. Low port number KVMs are convenient to use, without the installation of extra software, and can be easily managed using hot keys or switch keys. When purchasing a KVM, the choice is often made based on the number of PCs that you need to control and requirement of USB, PS/2, and VGA, or DVI interface. Thus, the KVM was "born" under the demands of saving space, costs and increasing management efficiency. However, this is not the most effective way of management as not only is it space-consuming, but also costly, and keeping a row of large CRT monitors may be problematic. If you need to control multiple PCs, then you need to purchase several sets of keyboard, mouse and monitor.

As a result, a single PC (CPU/Server) naturally complements the start up operations of the keyboard and mouse. After confirmation of connectivity, the screen then enters the start up page. According to the basic PC function design, as the PC is starting up, the operating system will automatically detect the signals of the keyboard and mouse. The main function of KVM is to control, switch and manage many PCs via a single keyboard, monitor and mouse. However, this is different from the conventional data switch. KVM is an acronym for keyboard, video (monitor) and mouse, and is otherwise called a PC switch or electronic switch.
