The clever thing is you have preferred mechanical way rather than electronics. Very clever.

Because electronic switching of high frequency differential signal (USB 2.0) can get quite complicated.

Thanks for posting, I was wondering if there could be an issue just using a simple switch to change where the usb go. I was wondering, why not using a 4P2T instead of a 4P3T ? Maybe a future-proof option ? also, I was thinking, many people did a 2 usb input but you are right, a usb hub is better. since I got one spare that is a very old one... and also a bunch of female usb lying around, I'll do the same as you did. I really like the fact you put up a pinout diagram and explaining it. Not everyone do that, and it's really convenient. Best regards

Hello man, thanks for the tutorial; could it be possible with a 3 contact 4 position switch (its the one i have at home)? with 1 to 4 for A, 5 to 8 for B and 9 to 12 for C, i dont really know how the positions wiring is working tho. i was thinking to link USB Female VCC to 1, D- to 2, D+ to 3 and ground to 4, then link in the same order USB Male 1 to B (5 to 8) and USB Male 2 to C (9 to 12). How would you wire it if its possible? Thanks, keep up the good work
@cavy-lab3146 Жыл бұрын
Could be possible but I'm not sure about the pinout, you should check the pinout with multimeter, For 3 contacts switch I would use each contact for Vcc, D+ and D- the ground could be connect together, Careful about the 4 position though most audio selector are make-before-break meaning adjacent position will be shorted momentary during switching, My selector is 3 position so I only use 1 and 3 skipping the 2 position. Sorry for late reply, Thanks for watching.

You could use 2 sets of speakers connected to each pc audio output and the only sound you will hear is the Windows USB device attached/detached sound. Or just use a Bluetooth speaker with multiple device pairing.

Hi, nice work mate, just want to ask is this save for our computer, i mean i watch other videos similar like you [ yt id: j-ySUHcP6Tw ] in comment someone said it need diode or something (they said can burn something), do this one also need diode or not? thank you?
@cavy-lab31463 жыл бұрын
That's why I use a 3 position selector instead of 2 because of how the audio selector design is a make-before-break operation. That is, the pin of 1 - 2 or 2 - 3 will be momentarily shorted during switching, so I skip position 2 to prevent shorting +5V of each computer together. If you would like to use all the positions of the switch then you need a diode but that will drop a 5V supply voltage of about 0.7v (depend on the diode type) and some USB devices may not operate properly. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you.
