Two-Port USB KVM Switch

The ATEN CS22U lets you control two USB computers from a single keyboard, mouse and monitor. Two integrated cables connect directly to each PC, so no extra leads or software are required. It supports video resolutions up to 2048x1536 for clear display output.

Home and office users with two PCs

This switch suits anyone who wants to share one console between two desktop systems without unplugging peripherals. It is not for setups that need to manage more than two computers or that require remote IP access. Buyers needing audio switching or additional USB peripheral ports should look elsewhere.

Plug-and-play installation

Simply attach the built-in cables to each computer and connect your console devices to the front ports; the unit draws power from the USB links. The only common issue is cable reach, since the fixed leads limit how far apart the two PCs can sit. No drivers or configuration are needed.

Questions about this item

Do I need to buy any extra cables to connect two computers to the CS22U?

No. Two USB KVM cables are built into the main unit and provide both USB and HDB-15 video connections for each computer.

Will my older PS/2 keyboard and mouse work if I keep them?

The console ports are USB Type-A only, so PS/2 peripherals would need a USB adapter to function.

How can I confirm the CS22U is switched to the correct computer after setup?

Two LED indicators on the unit light to show which of the two connected computers is currently active.
