One USB-C to USB-C cable goes from Port 1 to the MacBook Pro, while the other runs from Port 2 to the iPad Pro. I plug the Access Pro in using a USB-C power supply, then run the HDMI cable between the unit and the monitor. ![]() How does all of this get hooked up? Let’s say, for example, that I have a MacBook Pro and an iPad Pro, and that I’d like to be able to use both with one 4K HDMI monitor and a wired USB keyboard and mouse (or a wireless keyboard and mouse using a USB dongle for connectivity, like IOGEAR’s Tacturus RF Desktop). IOGEAR also supplies two 3 foot (.91m) USB-C to USB-C cables for quick hookups.Ī set of LEDs on top of the Access Pro give a visual indication of which port is in use. The remote button has a 6 foot (1.83m) cable on it, making it easy to place just about anywhere in reach, even routing under a desk if needed. For data transfer on those two USB-A ports, data rates of up to 5Gbps are supported. Port 2 is designed for smartphones and tablets, and supports up to 10W of power at 5V. The USB-C ports both support Power Delivery (PD) pass-through - Port 1 supports up to 75W at 5, 9, 15 or 20V. The HDMI port supports up to 4K HD 3840 x 2160 resolution at 30Hz for Macs, and up to 1080p for the third-generation iPad Pro. The front has two ports - both USB-A 3.1 Gen 1.

The Access Pro is an attractive-looking aluminum box measuring 5.75 inches wide by 4.75 inches deep by. With the growth of USB-C in both Macs and iPad Pros, it’s no surprise that IOGEAR has created the $199.95 Access Pro 2-port USB-C KVM Switch with Power Delivery as a solution that can give users a way to use both platforms with one keyboard, mouse and monitor. KVM switches are nothing new - the acronym stands for “keyboard, video and mouse”, and the switches are used to control multiple computers from one keyboard, monitor and mouse. ![]()
