The light that indicates which output it's set to is recessed. I have to lean forward to see it, but that's preferable to having it constantly visible from my usual position. Might not be preferable for everyone though. That's the only thing that seems worth mentioning. It's tiny, it comes with cables, and it works.

Si hace switch entre dos computadoras, pero ocasionalmente marca error en alguna de las computadoras.Hay que desconectar cables y conectar nuevamente.Pero si es 3.0

Nice and simple. Work well.

Nice and simple. Work well. Good value for money.I connect two laptops to two monitors via a docking station. The docking station also connects to other peripherals (mouse, keyboard, printer etc).This device allows me to switch between the two laptops.

Bascule de pc efficace

Peut être mieux si la toxine de bascule serais au bout d’un autres fils pas à côté des prises. Mais pour le prix parfait !

Ottimo Switch USB 3.0

Ottimo questo Sabrent Switch USB 3.0 con il quale è possibile condividere più periferiche tra due computer (non contemporaneamente).Nel mio caso ho collegato due PC fissi ai due ingressi dello switch mentre all'uscita ho montato un HUB alimentato 7 porte 3.0 + una porta USB di ricarica.Lo switch possiede due spie a LED blu che indicano il PC attivo: ovviamente il PC inattivo è consigliabile tenerlo spento.i due PC collegati allo switch condividono:1 webcam con microfono1 pendrive da 128Gb1 adattatore USB (dongle) WiFi e Bluetooth1 adattatore USB (dongle) per tastiera e mouse1 HD esterno 2,5 4Tb1 HD esterno 2,5 1Tb1 Stampante lasercon la porta di ricarica viene alimentato un soundlink mini della BoseL'HUB viene alimentato con 2APer la mia esperienza e per il tipo di utilizzo che ne sto facendo, consiglio assolutamente il prodotto senza alcuna riserva.

Cheap and effective

A very cheap and simple solution to sharing a wireless mouse and keyboard with two computers. I didn't need a video switch so this is perfect.Maybe the only thing to note is that the device is very light so I used some velcro tape to stick it to my desk to stop it moving around.

OK

Fa il suo lavoro egregiamente, l ho usato per condividere una scheda auio SSL2 u usb fra 2 pc vicini che condividono pure lo stesso monitor...

USB 3.0 sharing switch seems great so far. Fingers crossed

Only when I came to write this review did I see the 1 star ones talking about current draw problems. Fingers crossed these issues have been fixed or I'm just lucky because this does exactly what I want.I have a laptop and a desktop both connected to one monitor which has a USB 3 hub on it and my keyboard, webcam and controller hanging off that. I have plugged this switch's "output" into the monitor hub and both PC's into its "inputs". I can now use both computers with one monitor and whichever devices are connected to it with the press of a button. Perfect.The switch is a really small, discrete box (albeit with blue LEDs that may be bright it in a dark room. I'll try to update on that later) and comes with 2 USB 3 A to B cables in the box so I didn't need to buy the additional one I did...Fingers crossed for no port frying. I'll definitely update if I do though. So far, so good.

Fonctionne parfaitement

Utilisé pour partager un clavier et souris entre deux ordinateurs. Les câbles dans mon cas sont un peu long, mais surtout trop rigides. Les remplacer n'a pas d'intérêt vu le prix du produit. Le switch lui-même est de bonne qualité. Seul petit bémol pour les led bleues qui éclairent un peu trop fort.

Simple yet effective

I've tried 2-3 other USB switches and each one of them ended up having issues (dropping the connection).This one was the cheapest and simplest but it works flawlessly.

Works well for keyboard and mouse

Does what I wanted. Chose this and added a small USB hub.Came with cables to connect to 2 PC.

Works as described

Works well and switches between 2 devices. Comes with 2 cables. Only weird behavior is it defaults to one port.

bought these so my dolby atmos headphones can be swapped between my xbox and pc.

once installed between my xbox and pc all it takes is two buttons one on this unit and a switch on the bluetooth dongle to switch between pc to xbox.

Handy USB switch.

I use this to flip my blkeyboard and mouse between my desktop and notebook computer. I use a different HDMI switcher for the monitors as I have multiple displays.

Très pratique

Ce commutateur me sert à faire passer mon casque USB de mon PC perso à mon laptop de travail en une pression.Trois câbles à brancher et c’est parti.La petite LED bleue qui permet de savoir quel PC est actif est très pratique.

Prises qui ne sont pas du même côté

L'appareil est bien fait et de qualité pour un appareil de plastique. Cependant, les prises USB auraient dû être toutes du même côté de l'appareil pour la gestion des fils. C'est un peu gossant qu'il y en ait avant/arrière.

Funcionamiento correcto

Funcionamiento correcto, no se aprecia lag ni errores. Echo en falta memoria, pues al apagar ambos PC siempre de conecta al izquierdo por defecto. He conectado un pequeño hub con USB de poco consumo y perfecto. También decir que los cables parecen un poco duros, pero seguro para permitir un buen valor de potencia.

Works great with USB audio (Fractal Audio AxeFX 3) and comes with two cables

Comes with two cables, they are somewhat short thoughI am using this to share a USB audio device (a fractal audio AxeFX 3) between my Mac Mini and my iPhone 13 ProI used a longer cable that I had for one of the ports to connect to the iPhone, and it still works fineIf you're using USB 3.x storage devices though it's best to keep the cable lengths as short as possible and use the cables that this product comes withWith USB audio, or any other kind of USB 2 device it really doesn't matter, thoughDoes anyone know what the micro USB port on this thing is for?

Great product and exactly what I needed!

Use Case:Runs my USB 3.0 Docking Station with both my laptop and desktop - allows me to simply swap between the two computers.Comes with two USB 3.0 wires and does exactly what I was hoping it would. I have just one concern, that is the button that switches between Device 1 & Device 2 - it feels like it may wear poorly and I would have preferred another type of switch.I would definitely recommend.

works great for my keyboard

used it for a keyboard to switch between a Desktop and my Laptop. works great

It works ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The good:-It does exactly what it says. Completely plug and play, no issues with setup or anything.The not-so-good:-It feels cheap. Which is ok, because it's not an expensive product. But the body of the switch is very light and the cords are rather stiff, which means that the switch isn't going to stay where you put it unless you fasten it in place somehow.-The cords it comes with are very short. Maybe not even 3 ft. This may not be an issue for everyone, but it was a stretch to reach my desktop pc under the left side of my desk, and the laptop on the top right side of my desk. If you really had to, you could get a longer cord/extension, but it's annoying they couldn't make the cords a tad bit longer.

Works as advertised

Like a lot of people, I have been working from home during the pandemic so my home office has also become my work office. However, I have my personal computer and a work-issued laptop. I hate typing on a laptop and using a track pad, so I use my PC keyboard and mouse. My keyboard is wired into my PC, and has a wireless dongle to work with my laptop, but I wanted to get a USB switch for my wireless mouse so I don't have to keep switching the mouse dongle whenever I switch from my work laptop to my PC, and vice versa. This USB switcher works like a charm. I have had no latency issues or drops. If you need a USB switcher for a peripheral like a mouse, I would definitely recommend this one.
