Share Your Device(s) With Simplicity
The Plugable USB 3.0 Sharing Switch (USB3-SWITCH2) is the ideal solution for one-touch switching of access between two computers to a:
- Powered USB 3.0 hub
- USB keyboard/mouse
- USB 3.0 graphics adapter
- USB 3.0 docking station
- Virtually any other USB 3.0/2.0/1.0 device
Features
One-Touch Switching
A single button press is all that’s required to toggle between connected computers. Blue LED indicator lights show which connected computer has control.
Potential To Do More
Looking to provide two-computer access to a single keyboard, mouse, and display? Just attach the switch to a powered USB hub, then connect all your desired peripherals for an all-USB KVM solution.
Just Plug In And Switch Away
Switch works with any USB-enabled computer without drivers. Attached external devices will still require drivers as usual.
