Key Features

2 host connections and 4 shared peripheral connections
USB Type-A plus USB Type-C host interface arrangement
USB 3.2 Gen 1, 5 Gbps connection class
Share up to 4 USB peripherals between 2 host computers from one switching point.
Connect mixed host systems through USB Type-A and USB Type-C host connections.

Share four USB peripherals between two host computers from one compact switching point. ATEN US5324 uses a 2 x 4 arrangement: two host systems connect to the switch, while up to four USB devices connect on the peripheral side. Its mixed host interface arrangement supports one USB Type-A host connection and one USB Type-C host connection, addressing work areas that combine older and newer computer hardware. USB 3.2 Gen 1 support provides a 5 Gbps USB connection class for peripherals that need more bandwidth than basic input devices, including external storage and other high-speed USB accessories. The switch centralizes peripheral access at a desk or bench rather than requiring separate keyboards, mice, drives, and USB accessories for each computer. It is intended for peripheral sharing, not for video switching or keyboard-video-mouse control. The ATEN US5324 differs within a USB-sharing range through its two-host, four-peripheral topology and its Type-A plus Type-C host arrangement. That combination fits a workstation with a USB-C-equipped laptop or compact system alongside a computer using a conventional USB Type-A connection. Confirm the required number of shared peripherals and each host's USB interface before selecting the switch for a fixed workstation or support bench.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I confirm US5324 is the right part for my deployment?▾

Confirm that your workspace has two host computers and requires access to no more than four shared USB peripherals. Also verify that the hosts match the switch's USB Type-A and USB Type-C connection arrangement and that USB peripheral sharing, rather than video switching, is required.

What does the 2 x 4 configuration mean on the ATEN US5324?▾

The 2 x 4 configuration describes a USB sharing topology with two host computers and four peripheral connections. It lets a single set of attached USB devices be switched between two systems instead of being permanently assigned to only one computer.

Which host connection types does the US5324 support?▾

The US5324 has a mixed host connection arrangement consisting of USB Type-A and USB Type-C. This supports workspaces where one computer uses a conventional USB Type-A connection and the other uses USB Type-C for its USB peripheral connection.

Can the US5324 be used for USB storage devices?▾

US5324 supports the USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection class, which is suitable for shared USB peripherals that need higher bandwidth than keyboards and mice. Confirm the storage device's own connection, power, and operating-system requirements before placing it into a shared workflow.
