Why Should You Use a USB KVM Switcher?
A USB KVM switch allows two or more PCs to share a USB peripheral device such as an external hard disk, USB drives, or scanners. Additionally, you can use a USB switcher to work on multiple computers at the same time with one set of mouse and keyboard.
With the help of a USB switch, you don’t have to set up a complicated network just to share the USB device. Just use an efficient KVM switch, and your USB device will instantly serve any computer that is connected to it. It will save you the cost and space of setting up additional USB devices.
How Does a USB KVM Switcher Work?
The start-up operations of a single console PC are interactively involved with its keyboard, mouse, and monitor. Whenever a PC is turned on, the device operating system tries to detect the incoming signals from the keyboard, mouse, and monitor. Here, a KVM switcher allows switching the correct signals with the help of signal emulation technology without affecting the CPU’s operations.
Benefits of Using a KVM Switch
The primary function of a KVM switch (keyboard, video, and mouse) is to control and manage multiple PCs via a single console of keyboard and mouse. Perhaps you can also use it to connect one USB storage device to two devices at a time.
The benefits of using a bi-directional USB switcher are as follows:
- Easy access to two PCs with one console set.
- It supports USB peripherals, which eliminates the need for separate USB hubs.
- Fast data transfer
- It reduces the need for additional keyboards and mice, which saves you money from buying additional equipment, and it also frees up desk space.
