The UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 4,000, brand new and sealed. It links two computers to one HDMI screen and one set of USB devices, with video at up to 4K 30Hz or 1080p at 60Hz. KVM stands for keyboard, video and mouse, and this box shares all three. Four USB-A ports on the switch take your keyboard, mouse and two more devices, such as a printer or a USB drive. Shoppers can see the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch working at our store in the Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Designed for accountants, developers, tax agents and anyone who works on two machines, the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch clears clutter from a crowded desk. Many people in Upper Hill and Kilimani offices carry a company laptop and also keep a personal desktop, and juggling two keyboards wastes space and time. With the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch, you file KRA returns on one computer and answer email on the other, all from the same monitor. Home offices and small cyber cafés benefit too, since one good screen and keyboard now serve both machines.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell KVM boxes without a brand name or a working return path, Mascom International stocks the genuine UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch with a 6-month warranty. At Mascom International, we're seeing steady demand from IT officers who set up shared workstations for finance and front-desk teams. The UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch draws its power over USB, so there is no extra adapter to find a socket for. Bring both laptops to the shop and test it before paying, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery across Kenya.
Common Questions About the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch
What is the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch price in Kenya?
The UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch sells for KSh 4,000 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. The price includes two 1.5-metre USB cables that link each computer to the switch, plus a 6-month warranty handled at our walk-in service desk. HDMI cables are bought separately. You pay on arrival, wherever you are in Kenya. For KSh 500 less, the UGREEN CM568 HDMI Switcher handles five video sources but shares no keyboard or mouse, so it suits TVs better than desks.
How does the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch differ from a regular HDMI switch?
The UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch moves your keyboard, mouse and USB devices along with the picture, while a regular HDMI switch only changes the video. With a plain switch you would still need a second keyboard and mouse for the other computer. The UGREEN CM568 HDMI Switcher in our store shows the difference: it takes five sources and adds a remote but carries no USB control. Pick the CM200 for two computers on one desk, and the CM568 for consoles and decoders on one television.
Will the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch keep working through KPLC power cuts?
The UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch takes its power from the computers over USB, so it runs as long as either machine stays on. Laptops carry on through a KPLC outage on battery, and a desktop on a UPS keeps going too, so the switch does not drop out. The connected monitor still needs power, so put it on the same UPS as your desktop. This low draw also makes it a good fit for offices in Industrial Area and Eldoret where blackouts strike without warning.
Who should buy the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch, and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch if you use two computers at one desk and want a single monitor, keyboard and mouse for both. It suits accountants, programmers, call-centre agents and students with a laptop plus a home desktop. Skip it if you game at high frame rates or edit 4K video, since it tops out at 4K 30Hz and 1080p 60Hz. Gamers are better served by a KVM built on HDMI 2.0, and anyone sharing a TV between consoles should choose the UGREEN CM568 HDMI Switcher.
Can the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch drive a 4K monitor?
Yes, the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch sends 4K to a monitor, but at 30Hz rather than 60Hz. That works well for spreadsheets, documents, eCitizen forms and web browsing, where the screen does not change quickly. Mouse movement looks a little less smooth at 30Hz, which some users notice in the first hour. At 1080p the switch runs at a full 60Hz. If your monitor is full HD, which most office screens in Kenya are, you get the smooth picture with no compromise at all.
How do I switch between computers on the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch?
You switch computers on the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch with a single press of the button on the box. The picture, keyboard, mouse and any USB devices then move to the other machine together. Keep the box within easy reach on the desk instead of behind the monitor. Changing over takes a moment while the screen re-detects the signal, which is normal for any KVM. No software or drivers are needed, so it works on office machines where IT has locked installs.
Does the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch work with a Mac and a Windows laptop together?
Yes, the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch works across Windows, macOS and Linux because it relies on plain HDMI and standard USB. Each computer needs an HDMI output and a USB-A port; newer MacBooks and slim laptops with only USB-C ports need a USB-C hub with HDMI for each machine. Keyboard shortcuts follow each operating system, so a Mac still uses Command keys. Mascom International stocks USB-C hubs, and our team can confirm the right match on WhatsApp before you order.
How long can the cables be on the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch?
For 4K 30Hz on the UGREEN CM200 HDMI KVM Switch, keep each HDMI cable to about 5 metres on both the input and output side. At 1080p 60Hz, UGREEN rates input cables up to 8 metres and the output cable up to 20 metres with thick 24AWG wire. That longer output reach helps when the monitor or projector sits across a boardroom. The two included USB cables are 1.5 metres each, so place both computers within that distance of the switch.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Video
- Two HDMI inputs and one HDMI output — two computers share one monitor, with only one shown at a time.
- Up to 4K at 30Hz — sharp enough for documents, spreadsheets and browsing on a 4K office monitor.
- 1080p at 60Hz — smooth full HD motion on the common office screens found across Kenyan workplaces.
- HDMI 1.4 standard — the version most laptops, desktops and monitors from the past decade support without any adapter.
- One-button switching — a single press moves the picture, keyboard, mouse and USB devices to the other computer.
- CEC and DDC support — lets connected screens and computers exchange display settings so the picture comes up at the right resolution.
- Digital signal throughout — HDMI carries picture and sound together, so speakers built into the monitor play audio from whichever computer is active.
Compatibility
- Works with Windows, macOS and Linux — it uses standard HDMI and USB, so no drivers or software are installed.
- Two USB 2.0 Type-B inputs — one cable from each computer carries keyboard, mouse and USB data to the switch.
- Suits laptops and desktops alike — any machine with an HDMI output and a USB-A port connects directly.
- USB-C only laptops need a hub — an HDMI plus USB-A hub bridges newer MacBooks and ultrabooks to the switch.
- HDCP 1.4 — a copy-protection standard that lets protected video, such as training videos or streaming services, play on the shared screen without going blank.
- Works with monitors, TVs and projectors — any display with an HDMI input can serve as the shared screen for both computers.
USB Ports and Build
- Two USB 2.0 Type-A ports — fast enough for a USB drive, a printer or a webcam shared between both computers.
- Two USB 1.1 Type-A ports — meant for a keyboard and mouse, which need only a small trickle of data to work.
- Shared USB devices follow the active computer — a printer or flash drive moves across with the picture, so files stay easy to reach.
- USB-powered design rated 5V — runs from the computers themselves, so no wall adapter is needed.
- Compact 134 x 66 x 26mm body — about the size of a smartphone, small enough to sit beside a keyboard.
- Black finish — blends with most monitors, keyboards and desk accessories in an office setting.
Cable Support and Inclusions
- HDMI cable runs of about 5 metres at 4K 30Hz — enough for most desk layouts with both computers nearby.
- Output cables up to 20 metres at 1080p 60Hz with 24AWG wire — reaches a boardroom screen or projector.
- Two 1.5-metre USB 2.0 A-to-B cables included — one for each computer, carrying both power and keyboard and mouse data to the switch.
- HDMI cables sold separately — you need three, one per computer and one to the monitor.
- 6-month Mascom International warranty — covers manufacturing defects, with claims handled at our Nairobi CBD service desk.
