Can this KVM switch correctly switch a wireless mouse (Microsoft Wireless Natural Laser Mouse 7000) with a wireless dongle? I found out from SECOM AG that the corresponding KVM switch requires a "full protocol additional port" for this? Is this the case with this model? Does anyone have experience with KVM switches and wireless mouse with wireless dongle? Thank you and greetings

So, I can answer this question myself now that I have the product with me and have asked ATEN support. Finally, there are 2 suggested solutions which worked for me: 1. disable mouse emulation: for this I had to enter the following key combination: 1.1 Hold down [NumLock]. 1.2 Press and release [-] (minus key). 1.3 Release [NumLock] again -> the ATEN KVM Switch beeps 2x 1.4 Press and release [m] (m button) -> The ATEN KVM Switch beeps 2x 2. via USB hub at the ATEN Keyboard USB port: for this I connected a powered USB hub to the ATEN Keyboard USB port. I then connected the wireless dongle of the mouse and the keyboard to the USB hub.

Does this KVM keep the signal open for inactive computers: in other words, if the monitor + mouse are active on computer 1 (for example) do computers 2, 3 and 4 believe the monitor is still connected or do they consider it disconnected? I have a 3 PC system with 1 monitor each + main monitor via KVM (2 monitors per computer). So I have 4 screens on my desktop. If the KVM "disconnects" the screen that is shared every time it switches, it messes up all the desktops every time I switch...

Here is the answer from our product experts: Does this KVM keep the signal open for idle computers: In other words, if the computer's monitor and mouse : 1 (for example) are active, do computers 2, 3 and 4 think the monitor is still connected, or do they consider it disconnected? Answer: Computers 2, 3 and 4 consider it disconnected. 2. So I have 4 monitors on my desk. If the KVM "disconnects" the split screen every time I switch desktops, it disrupts all the desktops when I switch. Answer: According to our technician's tests, we could not see any icons moving on the Windows desktop.
