2-Port USB Peripheral Sharing Switch

The ATEN US224 lets two computers share four USB devices such as a keyboard, mouse and two additional peripherals. Its all-in-one design connects both hosts with a single unit, removing the need for duplicate cables. A remote port selector simplifies switching between the attached systems. The device operates without mandatory external power.

Sustained operation within rated limits

The switch is rated for continuous use between 0 and 40 degrees Celsius with humidity up to 80 percent non-condensing. Green LEDs indicate the active computer port during extended sessions. An optional USB mini-B power input is available if the host ports cannot supply sufficient current for connected peripherals over long periods.

Verify host ports and peripheral power needs

Check that each computer provides a USB Type-A port for the supplied cables. Confirm the combined draw of your keyboard, mouse and extra devices does not exceed what the host ports can deliver, otherwise the optional power adapter will be required. The unit measures 1.00 by 2.62 by 3.24 inches and weighs .31 lb.

Questions about this item

Does the ATEN US224 generate noticeable heat or noise when left running all day?

The switch operates passively with no fan, so it produces no audible noise; its rated operating range is 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F) with up to 80 % non-condensing humidity.

What cables or ports must my two computers already have to use this KVM?

Each computer needs a free USB Type-A port for the two attached USB Type-A male cables that come permanently fixed to the US224.

Will my older USB 1.1 keyboard and mouse work through the US224 alongside newer peripherals?

Yes — the four downstream USB Type-A female ports accept any standard USB keyboard, mouse or other peripheral regardless of its USB version.
