What monitor, at what resolution? With any KVM, you need to check the maximum resolution supported.
You can get KVMs with DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, etc. They can be fairly expensive, but in my experience, it doesn’t pay to skimp.
I’ve been using 4-port IOgear KVMs. At various times, I have had a 2012 Mini and a 2018 Mini connected, as well as Mac Pros (via DVI), a MDD G4 (DVI) and a G5 (DVI). But my needs are fairly simple because my Eizo monitor”s resolution is 1920 x 1200, and I can use a DVI KVM. The 2018 Mini uses an HDMI to DVI adapter, as did the 2012 Mini.
The Eizo also has DisplayPort as well as DVI. I can connect to both and switching between DisplayPort and the port with the KVM attached is simple.
The IOgear supplied cables are high quality and let you share a set of speakers as well as a monitor, keyboard, and mouse.
