Makes Having Multiple Computers Much Less of a Pain.

by grimjack2 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Feb 11 '02
Pros: Best switchbox I’ve seen.
Cons: Seems Expensive. Way too Expensive!
I cannot believe what this thing costs! It was $200 for the four port model. The two port model is still $150 if you can believe that! I’ve seen older, non powered four PC switchboxes selling new for $28, and maybe even for $10 less at computer shows!...

Cons: None
Belkin USB 4-Port Hub (F5U101)

At last a computer product that does what it says it does and works the way it is supposed to!

Buy Quality, Not Linksys.

by BC79er , Oct 10 '00
Pros: Easy to setup, Belkin's reputation.
Cons: none
My previous employer allowed us to work at home, and gave us a desktop and monitor. At my request they bought a Belkin 2 way KVM switch, at the time retailing for approximately $300. When I changed jobs, I ended up with 3 desktops of my own, plus a...

Belkin Omnicube Does NOT work with Intellimouse

by Xendarq , Jul 25 '00
Pros: Good concept; works with straight PS/2 mouse

Not recommended

by nevadah , Jun 22 '01
Pros: Supports up to four computers, solid construction
Cons: Problems with Intellimouse, keyboard hotkey switching is erratic
I have two computers, one running Windows Me and one running Linux Mandrake, which I wanted to use with one keyboard, monitor and mouse. Belkin has a good reputation so I purchased this unit and two cable sets.

It never worked correctly for...

Favorite hardware on my desk

by aclawson , Apr 02 '01
Pros: Convenient! Easy to install. Cheaper and requires less room than two monitors, keyboards and mice.
Cons: Cables not included. Scroll Lock key mildly annoying at times.
A Pentium III running 98se on my desk and a NT 4.0 server rackmounted in the corner of my tiny office. The Omni Cube 4-port makes my life easy.

A small black box with a reasonably small footprint happily sits on my desk (and doesn't clash...

Desktop Space Reclaimer

by caradoc Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, May 27 '00
Pros: Small, flexible, low cost
Cons: Cable routing becomes a new problem
Do you have too many computers to fit under one desk? Does the thought of squeezing one more 15" monitor onto a workbench fill you with dread?

The Belkin Omnicube falls into a category of computer peripherals not normally marketed toward...

QuadraBus Technology Baby!

by DictatorMao , Dec 01 '00
Pros: Powerful USB capabilities
Cons: Has to wait for Extensions to load.
Being a proud owner of one of the early generation Beige G3's I had to take the intiative to buy my own USB card! I've also wanted to get a monochrome laser USB printer and a USB game pad for emulators. This led me to buy my four port PCI USB card. It...

Belkin OmniCube KVM

by millstom , Jan 18 '01
Pros: Easy to set up, attractive, affordable
Cons: Sometimes not as reliable in switching as I would like
I have a desktop and a laptop and wanted a KVM switch so that I could use a single monitor, keyboard and mouse. After extensive shopping, I chose the Belkin OmniCube, primarily because Belkin is a known brand.

In general I have been satisfied...

Sharing your Keyboard Video & Mouse couldn't be easier

by truewebusa , Mar 08 '01
Pros: Super easy to install, great picture quality, keystroke shortcuts to switch computers.
Cons: 4 good cables cost as much or more than the unit itself
I bought this unit with doubts about extending the monitor cable and not losing visual clarity. All my doubts were put to rest less than 10 minutes after I took the package from the UPS delivery man. The price is very low for what it offers and the...

Belkin 4-port hub F5U101

by Chi106 , May 14 '01
Pros: Easy to install
Cons: A little pricey
This four port USB hub is as easy to use as an extension cord. Just plug it in to any open USB port and voila you have just turned one USB port into four USB ports.

It is also compact and attractive. It is not really necessary that your USB...

by orion522 , Oct 03 '00
Pros: VERY Simple to use.
Cons: None, it works great!
I use this little switch at work for the two workstations we use for database input and internet research. Not too long ago one of our workstations went down and I had the duty of repairing and reinstalling all of the software. What a drag...that is,...

Saves desk space, but how convenient is it overall???

by dmatsumo , Mar 06 '01
Pros: Saves desk space
Cons: Only one button to switch between ports, doesn't work well with USB-to-PS2 mice
I recently purchased the OmniCube 4 port KVM switch because I was going to run some tests and set up a new Windows NT domain on a separate network. I didn't want to have 4+ monitors, mice, and keyboards, so a KVM switch seemed like the best solution....
