• About this Guide

• USB System Architecture

About this Guide

This guide describes the Extron SW2 USB, SW4 USB, and SW4 USB Plus switchers and

provides instructions on installing, configuring, and operating them. The terms “SW USB”

and “switcher” are used throughout this guide to refer to all models.

About the SW USB Series

The SW USB Series switchers make it possible for two or four host computers to share and

switch among up to four peripheral USB devices such as mass storage devices, keyboards,

mice, and other human interface devices (HIDs). They function as USB hubs with switching

and device emulation, so that connections are maintained between host computers and

peripherals.

Features

A number of specialized features help to streamline system integration, including port status

indication, RS-232 pass-through, front panel security lockout, and multiple control points.

• Outputs — Four female USB type A connectors act as a USB hub. Each port supplies

the 500 mA, 5 V rating required in the USB specification.

• USB 2.0 compatibility — The SW USB switchers are backward compatible with

all previous USB data rate standards, including low speed (1.5 Mbps), full speed

(12 Mbps), and high speed (480 Mbps).

• Mounting — The SW USB Series switchers have compact 1U high, half-rack wide,

3 inches (7.6 cm) deep metal enclosures that can be mounted on a rack shelf or under

or through furniture.

• Host and peripheral emulation — The SW4 USB Plus model provides increased

system reliability by enabling an uninterrupted connection between host and peripheral

devices.

• Host emulation: When a keyboard or a mouse is connected to port 3 or 4 and

the appropriate rear panel DIP switch is set to On, the SW USB switches to the

connected keyboard or mouse instantly (see Host emulation (SW4 USB Plus

only) on page20 for more information).

• Peripheral emulation: The SW USB provides problem-free boot-up by constantly

emulating a keyboard and mouse to the computer or another input device,

regardless of whether or not a keyboard or mouse is actually connected.

SW USB Series • Introduction 2

• Power supply — An external power supply provides worldwide compatibility.

• RS-232 control and pass-through — The SW USB switcher can be controlled by

Simple Instruction Set (SIS) commands received via an RS-232 interface. These SIS

commands can be sent to an RS-232 controllable Extron AV switcher attached to the

SW USB RS-232 Pass Thru port (see SIS Programming and Control starting on

page27, for an explanation of the available SIS commands).

• Contact closure control — Connecting a push-button contact closure device to the

SW USB Contact port or shorting pin 1, 2, 3, or 4 to the ground (_) pin of the Contact

port provides an alternative method of input selection on the SW USB. Commands

issued via contact closure can also be passed through the RS-232 Pass Thru port to

an attached RS-232 controllable Extron switcher (see Setting Up Contact Closure

Control on page12 for more information).

• Hot key switching — (SW4 USB Plus only) When host emulation is enabled, inputs

can be selected by a combination of key presses on a keyboard connected to port 3 or

• Front panel security lockout (executive mode) — To prevent unauthorized access

to the switchers, front panel lock mode can be enabled via front panel controls or SIS

commands to disable all front panel controls.

• Port status LEDs — The Active USB LEDs provide visual indication of port status and

activity for USB peripherals and all connected and active host devices.

USB System Architecture

A USB system architecture refers to the physical bus topology of USB devices connected

to a host device. USB devices include USB hubs, USB peripheral devices, or compound

devices (devices with a combination of USB hubs and USB peripheral devices built into it).

The system is organized in a tiered star topology to prevent multiple or circular attachments

to the bus. Each tier represents a degree of separation from the host device. Per USB

specifications, there are seven supported tiers, starting with the host device (or root hub)

occupying the first tier.

NOTE: Do not connect more than five daisy-chained hubs to the root hub. The

architecture does not support peripheral devices connected to USB hubs occupying

the seventh tier.
