Any experience using KVM switches with WO?

I'd like to purchase a USB KVM switch in order to control my display computers on occasion. Obviously, I only need the keyboard and mouse and not video, but I'm having a hard time finding the proper switch. Has anyone had success finding and using a KVM in a WO environment? Thanks in advance.

There's a pig tail connector on the rear side that contains the USB inputs (PS2 inputs as well) for your mouse and keyboard

There's a single USB to control both on the spider cables that connect the IO Gear box to each machine

 

I run each display machine cloned to both the true output and the KVM output, works well

 

Of course, you could also VNC into each machine if you are using a production machine. That feature is useful as well.
