How the USB Sharing Switch Works

The UGREEN 15705 acts as a switching point between two computers and connected USB peripherals. Connect the two computers to the available host connections and connect compatible USB devices to the peripheral ports. The selected computer can then access the connected USB peripherals without physically moving the device cables.

This is particularly useful when a single printer, scanner, storage device, keyboard, mouse, or other USB peripheral needs to be used with more than one computer.

USB 3.0 High-Speed Connectivity

With USB 3.0 connectivity, the UGREEN 15705 is designed for high-speed data communication with compatible USB peripherals. It can be useful for transferring files, accessing compatible storage devices, and operating everyday USB productivity equipment.

Actual data-transfer performance depends on the USB host, connected peripheral, cables, operating system, and other components in the connection. USB 3.0 performance is available only when the connected equipment and configuration support the corresponding USB standard.

Ideal Applications

• Home Office: Share a printer, scanner, keyboard, mouse, or other USB device between a desktop and laptop.
• Business Workstations: Allow two computers to access shared office peripherals.
• Printer Sharing: Switch a compatible USB printer between two computers.
• Scanner Sharing: Share a compatible USB scanner between multiple host computers.
• Storage Access: Connect compatible USB flash drives, card readers, and external storage devices.
• Laboratories: Useful for shared USB measurement or data-collection peripherals where compatible.
• Classrooms: Provides flexible peripheral access for multiple computers.
• Professional Workstations: Useful when maintaining separate computers while sharing common USB equipment.

Printer & Scanner Sharing

The UGREEN 15705 can simplify environments where a compatible USB printer or scanner needs to be accessed by two computers. Instead of unplugging the peripheral from one computer and connecting it to another, the USB sharing switch provides a centralized switching solution.

This can be especially useful in small offices, reception areas, workstations, and home-office environments where network printer sharing is not available or not preferred.

Keyboard & Mouse Sharing

Compatible USB input devices such as keyboards and mice can also be used in shared workstation configurations. This can help reduce desktop clutter when two computers are positioned at the same workstation.

Peripheral compatibility may vary depending on the device and its power or driver requirements.

External Storage & USB Devices

The USB 3.0 interface makes the switch suitable for compatible USB flash drives, card readers, external storage devices, and other USB peripherals. When used with high-bandwidth devices, performance depends on the capabilities of both host computers, the peripheral, and the connected USB cables.

For storage devices, always safely eject the drive from the active computer before switching access to another host to help prevent data corruption.

Compatibility

The UGREEN 15705 is designed for compatible USB-enabled computers and peripherals. It can be used with a variety of USB devices, including printers, scanners, keyboards, mice, USB flash drives, card readers, and other compatible peripherals.

Operating-system compatibility is generally determined by the connected USB peripheral and host computer. Specialized devices may require their own drivers or software.

Important Compatibility Notes

• The switch is designed for USB peripheral sharing between two host computers.
• It should not be confused with a USB network switch or Ethernet network switch.
• It does not create a network connection between the two computers.
• Only the selected host should access a shared peripheral at a time where exclusive device access is required.
• External storage devices should be safely ejected before switching between host computers.
• Actual USB 3.0 performance depends on the connected devices, cables, and host ports.
• High-power USB peripherals may require additional power depending on their individual requirements.
• Specialized USB devices may have compatibility limitations depending on their drivers and operating requirements.

How to Use

1. Connect the first compatible computer to the designated USB host connection.
2. Connect the second compatible computer to the other host connection.
3. Connect compatible USB peripherals to the available peripheral ports.
4. Connect the required USB cables securely.
5. Select the desired host computer using the switch control.
6. Wait for the operating system to recognize the connected USB peripherals.
7. When changing computers, safely eject storage devices before switching access.

Benefits for Dual-Computer Workstations

• Reduces repeated cable swapping.
• Keeps shared USB peripherals organized.
• Allows two computers to share compatible USB equipment.
• Provides convenient access to common office peripherals.
• Helps reduce unnecessary desktop cable clutter.
• Useful for home-office and professional dual-PC workstations.

Professional & Office Applications

For businesses operating multiple computers at the same workstation, the UGREEN 15705 can provide a practical way to share compatible USB peripherals. It can help simplify workstation layouts where two computers need access to common equipment such as printers, scanners, keyboards, mice, or USB storage.

It is particularly useful where maintaining separate computers is necessary but purchasing duplicate USB peripherals is not desirable.
