The unit supports USB 2.0 data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps and is backward compatible with USB 1.1. Its compact housing and USB-powered design make it suitable for small offices and home workspaces.

Advantages

The switch automatically grants printer access to the computer that sends a print job, while a manual push-button lets users switch other USB devices between connected computers. Active-port LEDs show which computer currently has access, and a switch-lock function prevents accidental or unauthorized switching. No external power supply or software installation is required.

How to use

Connect the printer or other USB device to the switch's device port, then connect up to four computers to the switch using the included USB cables. For printers, simply send a print job from one of the connected computers and the switch will automatically assign the printer to that computer. To manually change which computer has access to a USB device, press the front-panel button corresponding to the desired computer. Observe the active-port LED to confirm which computer is connected.

Recommendations

Use the switch in a dry, well-ventilated area and avoid placing heavy objects on the device. Enable the switch-lock when you need to prevent other users from changing the active connection. For best performance with high-speed transfers, use USB 2.0-compatible cables and devices.
