Bi-Directional USB 3.0 KVM Switch

The Explus-C KVM switch lets two computers share one USB 3.0 peripheral or lets one computer switch between two USB devices. A single button toggles the active connection without drivers or an external power supply. The aluminium housing resists fingerprints and helps dissipate heat during extended use.

Replaces Manual Cable Swapping

It removes the need to repeatedly unplug and re-plug printers, scanners, keyboards, mice, storage drives or webcams when moving between two PCs. The changeover is instant, so the jump is worth it whenever workflow interruption from physical cable changes becomes a daily friction point.

Limited to USB Data Only

The switch handles USB 3.0 data at up to 5Gbps and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices. It does not pass video, HDMI or any display signal, so multi-monitor setups require a separate video switch or direct connections.
