Introduction

The SVKMS 2 Port USB Keyboard/Mouse Sharing Cable with File Transfer allows you to
control two computer systems using a single keyboard and mouse set, and oers the
ability to transfer les between them.

A compact keyboard/mouse switching solution that connects your two systems
using a standard USB 2.0 port, and installs automatically without requiring additional
software or drivers. Once installed, switching between systems is as simple as moving
the mouse over to your second display, or using hot-keys.

This simple Sharing Cable also provides the added benets of clipboard sharing so you
can copy-and-paste text from one system to another, and drag-and-drop le transfers
for eortless data management.
