What devices can I connect using a short VGA cable?

Are short VGA cables compatible with both PCs and Macs?

Can I use a short VGA cable with a KVM switch?

Absolutely. Short VGA cables are often used with KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switches to connect multiple computers to a single monitor, especially when the devices are located close to each other.

Do short VGA cables support audio transmission?
