Two-Port KVM Switch for Four USB Devices

The GCROWN switch lets two computers share up to four USB 2.0 peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers, scanners and storage drives. A single button toggles the active system while an LED shows which computer currently controls the devices. No driver installation is required on Windows, macOS, Linux or Chrome OS.

Plug-and-Play Peripheral Sharing

Each computer connects with a standard USB-A cable, freeing desk space by eliminating duplicate keyboards, mice and other accessories. The switch draws power from the host ports and includes an optional micro-USB power input for bus-powered devices such as portable hard drives or SSDs that need extra current.

Suited for Dual-PC Setups with Multiple Accessories

This unit fits users who operate two computers and want to share four peripherals without software configuration. It does not support video switching, so builders who need to share a monitor between systems should look at a dedicated video KVM. Buyers requiring USB 3.x speeds or more than two host connections will need a different switch.

Questions about this item

Will the USB 2.0 link become the bottleneck when I keep all four ports busy with drives and a printer?

The switch shares a single USB 2.0 connection to each computer, so total throughput cannot exceed the 2.0 rate when multiple devices transfer at once.

Does the box get warm or draw noticeable power if I leave it switching between two PCs all day?

It is a passive USB 2.0 hub with an optional micro-USB power port; with low-power peripherals it runs cool, but adding bus-powered drives may require the external 5 V adapter.

Which cables do I need to have on hand before this works out of the box?

Two USB-A-to-A cables are included for the computer links; you must supply a standard 5 V micro-USB power adapter if your peripherals need extra current.
