4x1 VGA Switcher from ComputerCableStore™. Or 4x1 VGA Switcher allows you to connect and access up to four cross-platform computers from the same workstation easily and reliably. No need for networking--everything is connected and routed through the small metallic Switcher. It switches analog video (VGA), USB keyboard/mouse controls and audio capability for each computer.Simply plug your peripherals directly into the back of the Switcher, connect the cables to the computers you want to control, push to select the computer you want to work on, and you're switching. The VGA Switcher allows you to choose between a Macintosh or PC keyboard/video/mouse combination. Switching between computers is done from a key switch or remotely using contact closure remote control. In information technology, Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus standard to connect devices to a host computer. USB was designed to allow many peripherals to be connected using a single standardized interface socket and to improve plug and play capabilities by allowing hot swapping; that is, by allowing devices to be connected and disconnected without rebooting the computer or turning off the device. Other convenient features include providing power to low-consumption devices, eliminating the need for an external power supply; and allowing many devices to be used without requiring manufacturer-specific device drivers to be installed. The term Video Graphics Array (VGA) refers specifically to the display hardware first introduced with the IBM PS/2 line of computers in 1987, but through its widespread adoption has also come to mean either an analog computer display standard, the 15-pin D-subminiature VGA connector or the 640×480 resolution itself. While this resolution has been superseded in the personal computer market, it is becoming a popular resolution on mobile devices.
