GCROWN USB 3.0 Bi-Directional KVM Switch
This compact switch lets two computers share a single USB 3.0 peripheral set or lets one computer toggle between two device sets. It suits home-office users who alternate between a work laptop and a personal desktop, or drivers who need to swap CarPlay and Android Auto phones on the same head unit. The aluminium shell keeps the desk tidy and the connection stable.
Replaces constant cable swapping
Instead of unplugging a keyboard, mouse, printer or webcam every time you change machines, you press the mechanical button on the switch. The LED shows the active channel instantly. The jump is worth it when you switch several times a day and want zero driver installation across Windows, Linux and macOS. It also removes the clutter of duplicate peripherals.
Handles USB 3.0 at 5Gbps
The link runs at up to 5Gbps, so flash drives, webcams and audio gear transfer without noticeable lag. It comfortably handles standard office and streaming peripherals. It runs out when a device demands more bandwidth than USB 3.0 provides or when you need to share more than two hosts simultaneously.

Questions about this item

The compact aluminium case sits flat on any surface; no brackets, screws or rack ears are required.
How is the GCROWN USB 3.0 switch installed and what step do users often miss?
Connect the two host computers to the upstream ports and your USB 3.0 peripherals to the downstream ports — no driver install needed — then press the mechanical button to select the active channel; the LED shows which computer is linked.
What maintenance or replacement will the mechanical switch button and LED indicator need over time?
The button and LED are solid-state parts with no user-serviceable components; if either fails the whole unit would be replaced.
