Bi-Directional USB 3.0 KVM Switch
The AUTYUE 2-port KVM switch lets two computers share a single USB peripheral or one computer alternate between two USB devices. It operates in 2-in-1 or 1-in-2 modes without external power or driver installation. A single button toggles the active connection while green LEDs show the current selection. The aluminium housing resists fingerprints and aids heat dissipation. It suits home offices and small workspaces needing simple peripheral sharing.
USB 3.0 5Gbps Interface Limits
The switch supports USB 3.0 data rates up to 5Gbps and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices. It does not transmit video or HDMI signals. Mass storage devices such as hard drives, flash drives or card readers are not recommended because they must be safely ejected via the host OS before switching. The two connected USB devices cannot operate simultaneously in 1-in-2 mode. Automatic switching is not supported.
Replaces Manual Cable Swapping
This unit replaces the need to physically unplug and replug USB cables when moving a printer, scanner, keyboard, mouse or webcam between two computers. The upgrade is worthwhile when frequent manual swapping causes wear on ports or disrupts workflow. It is not for users who require simultaneous access to shared storage across both computers or who need KVM video switching for dual-monitor setups.

Questions about this item
Should I use the 2-in-1 or 1-in-2 mode for my setup?
Use 2-in-1 mode to share one USB device between two computers. Use 1-in-2 mode to switch one computer between two USB devices. Both modes are selected with the same button.
What does the 5Gbps rating mean when I connect a USB 3.0 drive?
The 5Gbps figure is the USB 3.0 interface ceiling. Real-world throughput depends on the drive, cable quality and host controller, and will be lower than the theoretical maximum.
Which USB standard does the switch use and what does it limit?
The switch uses USB 3.0, capping the signal at 5Gbps. It is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices, which will run at their own slower speeds.
