Introduction
The intelligent USB 3.0 Data Switch allows you to share a single USB 3.0 peripheral with 2 different computer
systems, avoiding the cost of purchasing duplicate peripherals or the hassle of swapping cables from one system to
the others. Functions simple port selection via push button whether one of the two hosts is disconnected. The
working memory (last channel setting) won't be terminated no matter the unit shutdown and restarted. (Default
setting is switched to PC1 after powered on the unit; and then it will change to the last channel setting after
restarting the unit.)
The switch can also be connected to a USB hub, to expand the number of devices you can share between the 2
connected systems, or to a USB drive enclosure or docking station, for a shared external storage solution.
