Two-PC Peripheral Switch

This USB 3.0 bi-directional switch lets two computers share one peripheral or one computer access two devices with a single button press. The aluminium housing dissipates heat and resists fingerprints during daily use. No external power supply or driver installation is required for operation. It suits home offices and workstations that need quick peripheral swapping.

5 Gbps USB 3.0 Bandwidth

The switch supports up to 5 Gbps data transfer and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices. Blue LED indicators show which computer is currently active. The unit does not carry video or HDMI signals, so it cannot replace a display KVM. Buyers needing monitor switching must choose a different product.

Plug-and-Play Desktop Integration

Two attached 4.9 ft USB 3.0 cables connect directly to the host computers, freeing up ports and reducing cable clutter. The switch works with Windows, macOS, Linux and Chrome OS without configuration. It accommodates printers, scanners, keyboards, mice, drives, webcams and card readers. Users requiring more than two host connections will need a larger switch.

Questions about this item

What does the 5 Gbps figure mean when I plug in a USB 3.0 external hard drive?

The switch passes up to 5 Gbps between the computer and the drive, so large file transfers run at full USB 3.0 speed instead of dropping to USB 2.0 rates.

Which USB standard does the switch use and what does it cap in practice?

It uses USB 3.0 with a 5 Gbps ceiling and is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices, so older peripherals still work at their native speeds.

What physical space and cables are needed to mount this switch on my desk?

The aluminium housing is compact and the two attached 4.9 ft cables reach most desktop layouts without extra cabling or external power.
