Sanwa Supply has launched the "SW-USS24," a USB 5Gbps switcher that allows users to switch and share up to four USB devices between two computers. Priced at 7,920 yen, this product makes it easy to share USB mice, keyboards, USB memory sticks, cameras, and printers, making it ideal for environments where work and personal PCs are used concurrently.
The "SW-USS24" is a USB switcher capable of switching up to four USB devices between two computers. One of its ports supports Type-C, allowing Type-C devices to be connected. With all ports supporting USB 5Gbps, it is also suitable for applications prioritizing stable data transfer. The cable length is approximately 90cm, making it easy to manage even with desktop PCs placed under a desk.
There are two methods for switching: via the button on the top of the main unit or using the included remote switch. The remote switch can be secured to the underside of a desk or its legs with hook-and-loop fasteners, enabling quick switching at your fingertips even if the main unit is placed further away. It also supports wireless keyboards and mice; simply connect their receivers to the respective ports.
Compatible with Windows and Mac, a key feature is its plug-and-play functionality, requiring no drivers. While it typically operates without an external power supply, if power is insufficient, stable operation can be supplemented by connecting a power source to the unit's Type-C power supply port.
