Keyboard Features

[MrDrFedora]

Hi, 

 

I'm really tired of my workspace organization, and need to find some keyboards that will reduce the amount of peripherals on and around my desk. Specifically, I'm curious if there exists a function that allows for a single keyboard + mouse to connect to multiple workstations, which would be the bulk of my problem. My work requires me to have up to 5 workstations running at a time and my desks usually are over cluttered and generally confusing. I hate to admit it, but I always manage to use the wrong keyboard at least a few times a day. I would love to see a keyboard that has a set of buttons that links to each computer. Am I the only one in the world who has this problem? Does it already exist? Halp.

 

 

Also, I want to know what the favorite features on your keyboards are. It'll give me some more ideas on how else I can upgrade. 

 

Thanks guys

There is software that allows you to share peripherals across multiple devices:

That's just brilliant. Much appreciated.

I think kvm switches (keyboard, video, mouse switch) are still a thing maybe look in to that. I cant really help other then that since I have never used on.

In my opinion, the software sounds a lot better, and it's cheaper. But thanks for enlightening me on what it's called. I might be able to apply the hardware in some specific scenarios.
