2-Port VGA Manual Switch

The Tripp Lite B112-002-R routes analogue video signals between two sources and one display or one source and two displays. It uses HD15 female connectors for all ports and operates via a front-panel push button. The fully-shielded metal case requires no external power or software installation.

Users sharing one monitor between two PCs

This switch suits anyone needing to toggle a single VGA monitor between two computers without unplugging cables. It also works in reverse to send one computer signal to two monitors sequentially. Buyers who need automatic switching, hotkey control, or support for digital signals such as DVI or HDMI should look at a different device.

Manual push-button operation

The front-panel button is the only method for changing the active channel. There is no electronic switching, remote control, or automatic detection of active signals. Confirm that manual selection fits the workflow before purchase.

Questions about this item

What size connectors does the B112-002-R use for the computers and monitor?

It uses HD15 female connectors for both CPU ports and the monitor port, so standard VGA or SVGA cables with HD15 male plugs will fit directly.

How do you switch between the two connected computers?

Press the front-panel push button on the rugged metal case; the switch is fully manual and requires no software or external power to operate.

Will the switch need a power supply or firmware updates over time?

No, it draws all the power it needs from the video signal lines and has no firmware, so there is no power adapter to replace and no updates to install.
