Greetings. A question. There is a computer with 2 monitors through display port. (4k resolution both) Wireless keyboard and mouse. There is also a laptop. I would like to connect it to the same two monitors, but not to disconnect them from the computer. I look towards the KVM Switch. Actually the question is, is it possible to do this? I saw KVM for sale for 2 display ports + bluetooth keyboard mouse. Once upon a time I used KVM on 4 computers, but I don’t know if it’s possible to do this with a laptop. And at that time there was no DP and bluetooth.

I have exactly the same question, and here's what I came up with:
1. Modern monitors (since 4k means not old ones) have at least two wires for connection. We connect them directly to the PC and laptop.
2. There is such a usb switch for keyboard and mouse: https://ru-m.banggood.com/Ugreen-US216-USB-KVM-Swi...
