Rated 5 out of 5

Useful switch!

This is a great switch for a home office! You can connect a usb between 2 ports and like a printer shared between 2 systems. It's small that it can be left on top of a desk and it won't look cluttered. There is also a switch at the top that you can use to toggle on and off.

Effortless One-Touch Switching
Experience the convenience of one-touch switching, where a simple button press lets you alternate control between connected computers. The integrated blue LED indicator lights clearly display which computer currently has access, ensuring a smooth and intuitive user experience.

Expand Your Connectivity

Important Considerations
- Not compatible with docking stations or USB graphics adapters.
- This USB switch is not bidirectional and is intended for sharing devices between two computers only.
- Drivers may be necessary for connected USB devices.
- The switch is backward compatible with USB 1.1 devices and works with USB hubs for switching multiple peripherals.
- As a passive USB switch, it requires no power adapter, operating efficiently as a bus-powered device.
- Note that autosensing of hosts is not supported; manual button pressing is required.
- The use of USB-A to USB-B cables longer than 6ft/1.8m is not supported.
