Notes

When using the USB Peripheral Sharing Switch to share a USB storage device, you must eject the device before switching ports in order to avoid any data loss.
Although these switches do not require any software or drivers, the peripheral device that you are sharing between may. Please be sure that you have installed the latest drivers for your peripheral onto both systems before connecting to avoid detection or functionality issues.
Be sure your computer is powered on prior to installation.
Maximum distance from host device to peripheral is 5 m (16 ft.).
A USB hub can connect to a USB port on the switch, allowing you to add multiple USB peripherals to the installation. To ensure proper function, it is recommended to use a hub with an external power supply.

Connect your USB peripheral device to the USB-A port on the switch.
Connect the first PC to the switch using a user-supplied USB 3.2 Gen 1 or lower cable. The computer will detect the switch, and it will be recognized in the Device Manager or System Preferences section.
Repeat Step 2 for the remaining ports that need to be connected with
user-supplied USB 3.2 Gen 1 or lower cables.
Once all ports needed are connected, the LEDs on top of the switch will indicate which computer is selected. To switch from one port to another, use the push buttons.
