All I can say is that I bought an ATEN KVM box some months ago to help
in installing Gentoo on my new box. It's V is two DVI connections, and
it also connects up audio.
It has performed flawlessly. The only slight problem has been the
sluggishness in switching between machines - it takes well over a
second.
I have no experience with Belkin's KVMs.
