• USB 3.0 graphics adapter
• USB 3.0 docking station

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.
