Pros and cons

Pros

  • Four peripheral outputs include both USB-A and USB-C, providing options for a mixed set of accessories.
  • Button and remote switching give two ways to select the connected computer.
  • The listing states backwards compatibility with USB 2.0/1.1, and includes a USB-C-to-A cable and a USB-C-to-C cable.

Cons

  • This is a USB peripheral switch, not a video-sharing KVM, so it does not provide a monitor connection.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing describes manual switching and button or remote control, while its technical details list USB 3.0 as a wireless connection and Remote as the control method. It also gives a 5Gbps transfer claim, a 30 watts wattage field and a 2 Amps current rating, without explaining how those electrical figures apply. Treat the unusual 45 Kelvin temperature rating and the IP40, UL specification claim as listing details to confirm rather than settled operating guidance. The USB-C input and 3A1C output description indicates two computer connections and four peripheral outputs, but check connector and cable fit for your setup.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

  • People who need to share USB peripherals such as a keyboard, mouse, printer or storage device between two computers.
  • Setups with a combination of USB-A and USB-C peripherals that do not need video switching.

Less suited to

  • Anyone seeking a monitor-sharing KVM or a switch with video outputs.
  • Users who need a stated data rate above the listing's claimed 5Gbps.

Customer feedback highlights easy setup, reliable operation, quick switching and robust build as reported strengths. Connectivity experiences are mixed, with some reporting steady performance and others intermittent disconnections. For a two-computer peripheral switch, reliability matters because a connection drop can interrupt attached devices. The generally favourable aggregate ratings are useful context, but do not establish how it will behave with a particular computer or peripheral.

Positive themes

  • Customers report straightforward setup and dependable operation.
  • Feedback also praises switching speed and build quality.

Mixed feedback

  • Connectivity feedback is mixed, including reports of intermittent disconnections.

Frequently asked questions

Can this switch share a monitor between two computers?

No monitor or video switching is specified. It is listed for sharing USB peripherals, so a separate video KVM would be needed for monitor switching.

How many peripherals can it connect?

The listing specifies three USB-A and one USB-C output, for four peripheral connections.

How do you select which computer uses the peripherals?

The listing describes switching by the device button or a connected remote.

What transfer speed does the listing claim?

It claims data transfer up to 5Gbps and backward compatibility with USB 2.0/1.1. This is a manufacturer claim, not an independently measured result.
