The IOGEAR DVI KVMP Switch GCS1104 charts a revolutionary new direction in KVM switch functionality by providing an interface for today's digital monitors while integrating a 4-port USB KVM switch with USB 2.0 peripheral sharing capabilities. As a KVM switch, the unit allows the user to access four computers from a single USB keyboard, USB mouse, and monitor, and also share among the computers USB 2.0 peripherals such as external hard drives, printers and scanners.
The GCS1104's independent (asynchronous) switching feature allows the KVM focus to be on one computer while the USB peripheral focus is on another. The user can switch from one computer to another without interrupting print jobs, downloads or other functions being handled by connected peripherals. This eliminates the need to purchase a separate USB hub as well as the need to purchase separate stand-alone peripheral sharers - such as printer servers, modem splitters, etc. The GCS1104 further improves on previous designs with DVI (Digital Video Interface) connectors, and the transfer of keyboard and mouse data to the computers via a fast, reliable USB connection. DVI supports both digital input (flat panel displays, data projectors, plasma displays, digital TVs and set-top boxes) and analog video input (traditional monitors and TVs).
*Product ships with four USB DVI-D KVM cables, DVI-I cables are sold separately.

How to connect the Samsung Smart Dock to IOGEAR's 4-port HDMI KVM switch
I found the IOGEAR 4 port HDMI KVMP switch to be very useful and works great with my Samsung Smart Dock! I bought it about 6 months ago and I am very happy with it. The only issue is that because it works off the usb ports for switching between devices, depending on the device, there is an occasional lag. But it never lags when I switch from or to my Samsung smart dock that I connect my Note 3 to; check out the demo I have of how to connect the KVM switch to the smart dock here:

The perfect device I was looking for.
I needed a 4 port video switch that handled DVI. I hate ordering video switches because I really don't know what I'm going to get until its in my hands. So I ordered this one and hoped it would be good. Well I have to say this little guy is great! Small form factor so it's not bulky and taking up a lot of room. The cables seem to be great quality. Buttons on the face are large and easy to use. Everything about this device is great. Going forward this will be the standard KVM I will use.
