UGREEN USB 3.0 Switch 2-Port Manual 2‑Way KVM‑Style USB Switch Black

Description

Product Overview

The UGREEN 2‑Port USB 3.0 Switch is a compact, manually operated device that enables two separate computers to share up to two USB peripherals without the need for additional software or drivers. Built with a sturdy black housing, the switch features a reliable aluminum contact material that ensures a stable electrical connection for both data and power transmission. It operates at a standard 5 Volt supply and supports a current rating of 2 Amps, providing enough power for most keyboards, mice, printers, webcams, and external storage devices. The USB 3.0 Type‑A connectors deliver data transfer speeds of up to 5 Gbps, while remaining fully backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices, guaranteeing fast and efficient file sharing between PCs. An integrated LED indicator clearly shows which computer is currently active, allowing users to switch with confidence. The device measures 27.56 × 15.75 × 9.45 inches and weighs only 8 ounces, making it easy to place on a desk or mount behind a monitor. Designed for both Windows and macOS environments, the switch works seamlessly with Linux and Chrome OS as well, offering a universal solution for multi‑device setups.

Usage

In a typical home office, a user may have a desktop workstation for heavy tasks and a laptop for mobility. By connecting the keyboard, mouse, and external hard drive to the UGREEN switch, the user can toggle between the two machines with a single press of the push‑button, eliminating the need to constantly unplug and replug cables. The same principle applies to creative studios where a graphics tablet and high‑resolution monitor are shared between a primary editing PC and a backup system. In educational settings, teachers can connect a projector controller and a USB microphone to the switch, allowing them to switch between a classroom computer and a personal laptop during lessons. The plug‑and‑play nature means that no additional drivers are required; simply connect the devices, power the computers, and the switch is ready for use. The LED status light provides immediate visual feedback, ensuring that the correct computer is selected before starting work or presentations.

FAQ

Can I use this switch with a monitor?

No. This device only transfers USB data and power; it does not support video signals. For video sharing, a separate KVM switch is required.

Do I need to install drivers for the switch to work?

No. The switch is completely plug‑and‑play. Simply connect the USB devices and the computers, and the switch will function immediately.

Is the switch compatible with Mac computers?

Yes. The switch works with macOS, Windows, Linux, and Chrome OS without any additional software.

What is the maximum cable length I can use?

The included 5 ft USB 3.0 A‑to‑A cables are recommended for optimal performance, but longer cables can be used as long as they meet the USB 3.0 specifications.

How many devices can I connect to each port?

Each of the two ports can support one USB device at a time. If you need to connect multiple devices, consider using a powered USB hub in conjunction with the switch.
