DoA cables included (and a useful shorting method)

The switch itself seems fine in the first limited tests of switching the scanner between two computers. However, I screwed up that the supplied cables are too short. They just couldn't make the necessary electrical USB connections. The good thing - at least for now - is that the much longer and more convenient USB AB cables I have work just fine.

Pros

Easy installation

Cons

Reliability
