The short answer
Two computers, DisplayPort video, one switch: the ATEN CS1942DP is a KVM switch for a mini PC owner who wants to share a desk setup between machines. Its part number is CS1942DP, and it only suits machines with a DisplayPort output. The product name adds USB 3.0, 4K and dual display.
Specifications
This is a KVM switch for 2 computers with DisplayPort video. In practice, you choose which of the 2 computers your desk follows. The product name also points to USB 3.0, 4K and dual display support, so it is meant for a desk with two monitors. ATEN's part number is CS1942DP, handy for checking the maker's own page.

Which mini PCs it fits
The switch's video side is DisplayPort, so each mini PC you plug in needs a DisplayPort output. The Lenovo ThinkStation P3 Tiny Gen 2, MINISFORUM AI X1 Pro, ACEMAGIC AM06 Pro and ASUS NUC 14 Performance all connect through a DisplayPort output.
The MINISFORUM MS-01, ACEMAGIC AM08 Pro and ASUS ExpertCenter PN65 have no DisplayPort output, so they do not fit. For the GMKtec NucBox G3 and MINISFORUM AtomMan G7 Pro, we have not confirmed the fit, since their DisplayPort outputs are not confirmed.
Checked against every mini PC sold on amazon.com, from the specifications we hold for each machine.

Before you buy
Check that each machine has a DisplayPort output before buying, because machines without one do not fit. The two machines whose DisplayPort outputs are not confirmed need checking too. ATEN does not state the switch's ports, so check the maker's page before you count cables and monitors.
Common questions
Does the ATEN CS1942DP work with the MINISFORUM MS-01?
No. The MINISFORUM MS-01 has no DisplayPort output, and this switch carries video over DisplayPort, so it does not fit that machine.
How many computers can it switch between?
It switches between 2 computers. Each one needs a DisplayPort output, because the switch carries video over DisplayPort, so check your machine's video outputs before you order.
Does it fit the ASUS NUC 14 Performance?
Yes. The ASUS NUC 14 Performance connects through a DisplayPort output, which is what this DisplayPort KVM switch needs from each computer.
