Keyboard/Mouse Duplicate a USB device rather than switch it

    Hello,

    Does this website have a device that duplicate a USB peripheral (like a keyboard) to 2 computers? Essentially, I'm looking for a USB / KVM switch that allows me to output to both computers simultaneously, rather than switch between them.

    I would like to hook a keyboard up to 2 separate computers and have it's input be sent to both computers at the same time. I know this use-case is rather niche, but if there's a solution out there, I would love to know about it. Preferably anything that isn't software or OS dependent.

    Thank you!

    Hello Brandon,

    Thank you for reaching out on our HelpCenter.

    This would require a unit with the broadcast feature, like these.
    These would only send generic keyboard keystrokes (i.e. no macros, quick buttons or other non-standard keys) off a standard 104 key layout as it has to use the emulated keyboard.

    Hope this helps!
