Unitek KVM Hub U1344ABK01 is a compact KVM-style USB hub that enables switching of peripherals between two host systems. The device provides a high-speed 10 Gbps data connection and three USB-A ports for connecting keyboards, mice, flash drives, printers or other USB accessories. Its small footprint and simple switching make it suitable for desktop and small office setups where users need to share input devices and USB peripherals between two computers without constant reconnections.

Advantages

The hub supports up to 10 Gbps throughput for fast file transfers and responsive peripheral operation while maintaining compatibility with standard USB-A devices. Physical switching between two hosts reduces cable swapping and desk clutter, and the unit's compact design fits neatly alongside monitors or on a workstation.

How to use

Connect the hub to each host using the appropriate upstream cables supplied with the device, then plug keyboards, mice and other USB-A peripherals into the hub's downstream ports. Use the hub's switching control to select the active host; connected devices will be available to the selected computer. For file transfers, ensure the target host recognizes the storage device before initiating read/write operations. Place the hub within easy reach to switch hosts as needed.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, connect high-power devices such as external hard drives to a powered USB port or use a powered USB hub if necessary. Avoid hot-plugging high-current devices during active transfers and ensure both hosts are configured to accept USB input devices. Keep firmware and drivers for host operating systems up to date to maintain compatibility with USB peripherals.
