Picking one of these

Check the resolution and the port type before anything else, because a switch that tops out below your display turns a clean desk into a compromise. Count your machines and then add one. Cascading a second switch works, but the extra hop shows up as another thing to power and another set of cables behind the rack.

Not sure of the size

The load calculator adds up what you plan to plug in and leaves only the units rated to carry it with room to spare.
