Even if all you plugged in were phones then after the first phone then all devices would see an out-of-specification USB voltage which they did not negotiate and may refuse to work at all.
A KVM switch reduces the number to one (each). Therefore, you must attach one keyboard, mouse, and monitor to the KVM switch. The KVM switch will display the video of the active computer and allow you to use its peripherals.If you are an avid gamer, the 60Hz upper limit on the refresh rate might be a problem, but you will have that problem with most KVMs. For any other purpose, you’re all set with this device! The switching can be done by a remote toggle connected to the device. Ports This Club 3D CAC-1527 USB Type-C cable is a powerful, extra long, cable which enables you to fast charge two Type-C devices simultaneously. When one device is connected, the power delivery will be max 100W. When two devices are connected, max 98W in total. Because of the PPS protocol your batteries will be charged in such a manner that it will increase the life span of your battery. Features Many mobile phones will negotiate up to 9V from a PD charger, laptops and other devices may work at higher voltages. I know of some that take 15V and some that take 20V. If you’re using multiple monitors, you should buy a switch that can transition between monitors. In that case, you might have to settle for a lower resolution or response time, or the switch will be too slow. Compatibility The device is compatible with all leading operating systems, allowing you to use any computer. Moreover, TESmart includes a wireless IR remote, enabling you to toggle between host computers conveniently. You can switch sources with mouse gestures, keyboard hotkeys, or the front panel button. Ports
The TESmart USB-C KVM switch is an externally powered device. Despite that, it has an additional USB-C port for power pass-thru to enable Power Delivery to the host computer. While it adds to the wire clutter, it also gives you flexibility if you use the switch to connect desktop computers. Are you buying the switch for your home setup or an office? What kind of work do you do on your computers? Are you a gamer? How far will the KVM switch be from your computer and peripherals? It would be best if you considered all these factors before you buy. USB-C ports can transfer data and power simultaneously, so you’ll reduce the number of cables needed for the connection, and you can also charge your laptop. Make sure you use a USB-C cable with enough transmitting capability. Various USB-C cables are available, but most do not have enough transfer capability. Ideally, look for a cable with more than 10Gbps (you can find this rating on the wire). How reliable are KVM switches? Yes, Scan Computers sells a 1.8m USB-C Y-splitter cable with up to 100w power delivery (or up to a total of 98w with two devices). Using a Cluster HAT node image (p1/p2/p3/p4) you can plug the USB DATA into a computer (Raspberry Pi, Win10 etc.) and access the system via either USB Gadget Ethernet or Serial Console. Can also be used with Pi-KVM. A Note on Power SuppliesCan I use two of Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport adapters to connect a macbook pro to two external monitors? I am having issue with that for some reason. Can I use two of Apple USB-C Digital AV Multiport adapters to connect a macbook pro to two external monitors?

Ports Switching might take longer than most KVM switches, probably because of low power consumption. Ports Plugging in a laptop and then a mobile phone to one of these splitters would mean that the phone would see 20V instead of 9 or even the "default" 5V.
Using a USB-C KVM switch negates this requirement, as USB-C allows data, power, and video signals on a single cable. Thus, USB-C KVM switches minimize wire clutter and help optimize your workstation. Video Output The device supports two hosts via the USB-C ports, providing a combined Power Delivery of 135W. While the active host receives 90W, the inactive host receives 45W Power Delivery. StarTech.com uses a 180W external power adapter to support this, which connects to a DC pin next to the Power Switch. Whilst USB-C cables are generally designed for higher current I still advise using short power cable to the Pi where possible to reduce voltage drop. It doesn’t matter what you’re buying; the first question should always be why. You need to know precisely your requirements before you wander into a store, or all the tech will fog your judgment, and you’ll waste your money. Image showing the aforementioned USB-C splitter that I desire but where only one port is for charging and the other is for data/audio:Thanks George. I know that the unique USB-C port on the LG monitor is fine for video input. When I connect it directly to the Mac or PC, the display is working fine. But the Sabrent switch does not seem to output video through USB-C, only through HDMI. There are a few ways to reduce the number, though, and if you’re working with multiple PCs but using the same peripherals, a KVM switch will work wonders for your setup’s aesthetics and efficiency. While a dedicated power supply does add to the cable bundle, it also helps protect your system against poor electric efficiency. A manifestation of this fact is the heating up of the monitor’s or PC’s power supply when connected through a powerless KVM switch.
