Two-computer USB sharing hub

The TRENDnet SW03003 lets two computers share two USB peripherals such as a keyboard, mouse, printer, scanner or webcam. It connects each PC with a supplied USB 3.0 A-to-A cable and presents two downstream ports for the shared devices. The unit is driver-free on Windows, macOS, Chrome OS and Linux, so it works immediately after plugging in.

Desktop controller keeps cables tidy

A compact push-button controller sits on the desk while the main switch body can be tucked away in a corner. Each button has an LED that shows which computer currently owns the USB ports, allowing instant switching without reaching behind equipment. The arrangement reduces cable clutter and frees up USB ports on both machines for other accessories.

Replaces manual cable swapping

Users who currently unplug and replug peripherals when moving between a work PC and a personal laptop gain a one-touch alternative. The switch only passes USB data; it does not carry video or audio signals, so builders needing monitor sharing must look elsewhere. The step up is worthwhile whenever two systems regularly use the same keyboard, mouse or printer.

Questions about this item

Will the USB 3.0 ports hit a bandwidth ceiling when I keep a scanner and webcam running all day?

The switch uses USB 3.0 links rated at 5 Gbit/s, so sustained scanner and webcam streams stay well within the available throughput.

Does the desktop controller or the main unit get warm or draw noticeable power during continuous operation?

The device is bus-powered with no fan; it runs cool and silent, adding only the negligible draw of the LED indicators.

What cables or host ports do I need on my two computers before this switch will work?

Each computer needs a free USB-A port; two USB 3.0 A-to-A cables are included in the box.
