USB-c hub with switcher button? - skull - Jul 13, 2022
Does anyone know if there is a USB-c hub that includes a switcher button.
Use case:
I have these 2 MacBooks on my work desk, and I recently upgrade with one set of monitor and keyboard.
Currently I keep plugging the HUB out of one machine to the other machine in order to continue to use the setup.
I don't have space for two monitors and keyboard at this time, so was thinking if there was a hub that supported a click-switch to easily change between the output.

Something like this should be what you're looking for:

Take a look at this one, it is however a little expensive

Check this out. No hardware necessary to share peripherals between two computers.
