Two-computer, four-device sharing

The Jansicotek USB 2.0 KVM switch lets two computers share up to four USB peripherals such as a printer, scanner, mouse, keyboard or flash drive. It removes the need to swap cables or configure network sharing software. The unit is suited to small offices or home desks with multiple PCs or Macs. A single button press toggles the active computer.

Plug-and-play with optional power

Installation requires no driver installation on Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, XP, Mac OS X, Linux or Chrome OS. The switch draws power from the USB bus but includes a micro-USB port for an optional standard 5 V adapter when connecting power-hungry devices such as external hard drives or SSDs. Using any charger with a higher voltage output is not allowed and may affect performance.

USB 2.0 bandwidth ceiling

All four ports operate at USB 2.0 speeds, so the total throughput is shared across the active devices. High-bandwidth peripherals such as video capture hardware or fast external SSDs will not reach their maximum potential through this switch. The 10 m cable length limit inherent to the standard also applies to the cables used with this unit.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the Jansicotek switch is working after connecting two computers and four USB 2.0 devices?

Press the front button once; the LED moves to the other computer and all four peripherals — printer, scanner, mouse, keyboard — immediately become active on that system.

What ships with the Jansicotek 2-port 4-device USB 2.0 KVM switch and what must I buy separately?

The box includes the switch unit, one USB extender cable and two USB 2.0 cables for the computers; a standard 5 V power adapter for high-draw devices such as HDDs or SSDs is not included and must be purchased separately.

Which version of the Jansicotek USB 2.0 sharing switch should I choose for Windows 10, Mac OS X and Linux?

The single model listed supports Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, XP, Mac OS X, Linux and Chrome OS out of the box with no driver installation required.
