Switch all peripherals between laptop and desktop

    Hi all,

    So I have a gaming machine set up with a monitor (HDMI), speaker (Audio jack) and a wired mouse and keyboard (USB).

    I also have a work laptop (HP Elitebook) which I use at this desk when working from home.

    The challenge I have is that I would like to be able to use my laptop with my monitor and peripherals, when working from home and I can't for the life of me figuring out a simple way of switching. For example, when I come home - plug my laptop into one source and it takes over my mouse/keyboard/speakers/monitor.

    Anybody an advice? I reckon a hub of sorts that can simply connect into the USB C of my laptop or into my desktop somehow?
