KVM without the V

[sm625]

I am looking for a simple USB switch that functions like any typical usb hub except you can switch on and off the individual ports. Has anyone heard of such a device?

So far my best/cheapest solution is to use these:

and run them all into a hub. This is pretty messy solution.

Is this what you are looking for?

if what you want is kvm you don't have to plug the monitor inputs in.

I used this a while back when I switched my keyboard/mouse between my laptop and desktop:

I have a centralized hub for all my usb devices, so I routed it through that switch (so I only needed one port). But monoprice also has a 2 port switch if you don't want or have a hub:

Yes thanks. I'm going to try the 7 port version of that one. I wont know until I actually get it apart, but hopefully it is switching on and off the signal lines and not just the power lines. I am going to remove the switches and place a microcontroller and some relays in their place.
