Best price out there, works as intended. Authentic StarTech product.

Flimsy construction

I purchased the unit to use instead of having to plug earphones or a small computer speaker around the back of my computer located under my desk. I plugged it in the usb port on the front and the sound was thin but worked. Unfortunately, the earplug cable put stress on the plug and the metal jack that goes into the USB port, broke away from the board inside the jacks plug.

question

Does the sound card support stereo microphone input?
Asked by: Anonymous
The input on this is NOT stereo. The description stating 2 x 0.14 (3.5 mm) mini-jack (3 position) female might indicate that it is and the answer in this Q&A may say that it is but it is NOT stereo INPUT. I tested on two separate computers with soundcards that are stereo and this one failed both tests. Other than that it is a good device.

is this unit compatible with a kvm extender?

is this unit compatible with a kvm extender?
Asked by: janell
As long as the USB on the KVM switch is not for keyboard and mouse only, and it could function as a hub as well, there should be no reason it does not work.
