P4ad122-kvm-switch

My department bought me the P4AD122-KVM-SWITCH
and seemingly it doesn’t recognize any m/kb i plug into the HID ports (1 on the front/2 in the back). i can however, use the hotkeys to switch between connected computers. it his a defective kvm? or am i missing something?
Thank you for your time.

Hello @HG91,

Thank you for your post on the Startech.com Community!

I see that you had contacted our Technical Support team for live support and during the troubleshooting we determined that there was not a USB-A to USB-B cable connecting from the computer to the KVM. After connecting this USB cable between the computer and KVM the mouse and keyboard were then able to communicate with the computer.

I am glad you were able to resolve this with our team! If there is anything else we could help with, please let us know.
