Worth the extra cost.

You can find them cheaper (I've tried a few). When you need good quality for years to come, you can't go wrong with Star-Tech. You can find cheaper products, but they are cheaper in every way.

Cons
  • There are almost all

Webcam/Mic Suitable

I use this for my webcam and mic so I can turn them off when not in use. Works well. I would like the cable to be more authentic, but that's not critical. I used a UGREEN 90cm USB 3.0 extension cable to extend across my desk to the back of my PC.

Cons
  • Appearance

Great product and well made

The ability to isolate (disable) USB devices was the reason I bought this product. Works very well. I just wish the keys clicked a little or went higher so you could tell what position they were in without feeling if they were pressed or not. This helps verify the on/off position.

Cons
  • boring packaging
