Product Description:
Universal Serial Bus (USB) port technology
has emerged in response to the proliferation of external peripheral
devices (digital cameras, removable drives, etc.), that are
increasingly being connected to the latest generation of PCs. USB
behaves in a similar fashion to conventional bus ports (i.e., serial,
parallel, PS/2), but since it does not require any IRQs, more devices
can be attached to the system, and the problem of IRQ conflict is
eliminated. ATEN's US401 4 Port USB Manual Switch allows up to four PCs
and/or Macs to share the use of a single USB peripheral device
(printer, modem, etc.), on a one-at-a-time basis. The active computer
is selected by means of an electronic push button switch that cycles
among all of the ones that are connected. Connect one of our hubs to
the downstream ports to increase the number of devices to share between
computers.
