PT-SW-U324 – USB 3.2 Gen1 2x4 Switcher: Multi-Host Device Switching for ProAV Environments
The PT-SW-U324 is a professional-grade USB 3.2 Gen1 switcher designed for flexible integration within meeting rooms, control centres, and workspace AV systems. Featuring dual automatically switchable host ports and four device connections, this unit supports seamless transitions between sources and peripherals. The enclosure is engineered for mounting in fixed installations and incorporates a locking power supply to prevent accidental disconnection. RS232 and panel button control options facilitate integration with AV control systems, supporting both manual and automated switching workflows for hybrid and collaborative setups.

• Dual Switchable USB-B Host Ports: Two independently switchable USB-B host ports support data transfer rates up to 5Gbps. This configuration enables rapid switching between multiple host devices, streamlining workflows in environments requiring dynamic source management.

• Quad 5G Device Ports with MTT: Four device ports – comprising two USB-C and two USB-A – feature Multi-Transaction Translator (MTT) support for optimised data handling. This architecture ensures efficient bandwidth allocation when connecting multiple high-speed peripherals in professional AV installations.

• Overcurrent Protection on All Ports: Integrated overcurrent protection supplies 7.5W per USB-C port and 5W per USB-A port. This feature safeguards connected devices and maintains operational reliability, particularly in deployments with frequent peripheral changes or high power demands.

• Mountable Housing and Locking PSU: The unit’s purpose-built housing allows secure mounting in AV racks or under tables. A locking power supply connection prevents accidental power loss, supporting uninterrupted operation in mission-critical environments.

• Universal USB Device Compatibility: All device ports comply with USB 3.2 Gen1, USB 2.0, and USB 1.1 standards. This ensures interoperability with a broad range of peripherals, from legacy devices to modern high-speed equipment, across diverse AV setups.
