So i have a PC with DP output and a MacBook Pro with HDMI output, my display has only a DP input (i do have a DP to HDMI cable)

I'm looking for a (preferably cheap) KVM that will enable me to switch my display (and mouse/keyboard) from the PC to the MacBook, only thing is that all KVM's i saw at Amazon are either DP or HDMI, and none of the DP KVM's that i've found will work with an HDMI source through an HDMI to DP cable.

Any ideas/suggestions?

I've never seen KVMs that didn't have all inputs of the same type.

 

What macbook is it though? Might be able to get DP out of it from another port.

It's a mid-2015 MacBook Pro.

I mean, the KVM can have all DP as long as it will support getting once source through an DP to HDMI cable..
