Two-Computer KVM Switch

This Explus-C USB 3.0 KVM switch lets two computers share four USB peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers, scanners, flash drives or cameras. It is aimed at users who split time between a work machine and a personal machine and want a single set of devices on the desk. The unit operates without driver installation across Windows, macOS, Linux and Chrome OS.

USB 3.0 Interface Limits

Four USB 3.0 ports provide up to 5 Gbps theoretical bandwidth and remain backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices. Switching is performed by a physical button with LED status indication, and the supplier notes that the switch only functions when used with the supplied USB A-to-A cables.

Four-Port Sharing Capacity

The switch comfortably handles typical desktop peripherals and high-speed storage such as portable hard drives or USB flash drives. Bandwidth is shared across the active ports, so simultaneous heavy transfers on multiple devices will reduce per-device throughput. It does not support video switching or more than two host computers.

Questions about this item

Should I pick this 2-computer 4-port model or a different configuration?

This unit connects two computers to four shared USB devices, so choose it when you need exactly that 2-in 4-out arrangement.

What does the 5 Gbps headline speed mean once the switch is in my setup?

It delivers up to 5 Gbps per port for flash drives or external disks, falling back to USB 2.0 speeds for older peripherals.

Which USB standard does the switch use and what does that cap in practice?

It uses USB 3.0 ports, limiting each connection to 5 Gbps and requiring the supplied USB A-to-A cables to function.
