Question Connections

[Rovers63]

Hi
I have work microsoft surface laptop connected to two monitors through a HP usb c hub.
All working fine, with HDMI connections along side usb keyboard mouse and camera.

If possible I would like to connect my home fell envy 360 laptop to the monitors, so I can switch between home and work,

What do I need and how do I connect it all up.

Many thanks.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

The Surface laptop is on it's 4th iteration. Which one do you have? As for your hub, please pass on a link to that as they have a number of hubs out on the market, new and old. Make and models of the panels you're working with? Please include the make and models of your peripherals(mouse+keyboard) as well.

You mean HP Envy 360. Please pass on the SKU to the Envy you have since they also have a number of them out there.

Does your HP Envy 360 has a USB-C port that supports DP alternate mode?
There are many HP Envy 360 models out there...
What's the model or product number of the Envy 360?

I have used the TESmart HKS0402A1U KVM switch with two laptops an two HDMI monitors. It has a nice button right on the frontto switch between laptops.

I am not sure the surface pro can power two monitors without the hub. Can I go
surface pro - hub- kvm switch
and HO envy - KVM switch
Yes the envy does have a DP option.
Cheers

Many thanks.

The 1866 is the Surface Pro 7 with Intel 10th Gen CPU.
The USB-C 3.1 port can handle dual 4K monitors ( 60Hz refresh rate)
This Anker USB C to Dual HDMI Adapter works with the Surface Pro 7
