Overview
The VS-291 / VS-491 Video Switches are control units that allow
you to conveniently display the video output of two (VS-291) or
four (VS-491) separate computer systems on a single monitor,
thereby eliminating the unnecessary expense of purchasing a
separate monitor for each computer. The units use electronic
switching technology, rather than mechanical switching, for
greater reliability and durability.
The VS-291 / VS-491 also saves on the space that additional
monitorstakeup, aswellas theextrapowercosts,andeliminates
the inconvenience and wasted effort involved in constantly
moving around from one computer to another.
