    Hello Scott,

    Thank you for reaching out on our HelpCenter.

    Currently, what type of connector is used to connect your camera to anyone of your laptops?

    Currently nothing exists. The only camera is the built in camera from each of the laptops.

    Hello Scott,

    Thank you for the info.

    It may be possible to share an external Web cam between the two laptops, but since the built-in cameras are hard-wired inside each laptop we are not aware of a possible way of sharing one built-in camera with another laptop.

    Sorry, but hope this helps nonetheless!

    The remote machine that will be controlling the client laptop will have an external USB camera. This is the camera we want to be the default camera in the client laptop. The client laptop will have it's own internal built in camera . but we will want to use the remote external USB camera through the Raritan KVM switch with the remote USB camera.
