Pleneo hub's automatic USB switching
Pleneo hubs connects to the right device on its own, with no cable swapping or settings to change.
Overview
Pleneo hubs switches between connected USB devices automatically. You don't need to change settings or move cables; they always connects to the right device on its own.
How it works
Pleneo hubs has two independent USB ports. The behaviour is simple and predictable:
Plug in a device, and it switches to it automatically
Unplug the device, and it switches back to the previous system
There's nothing to configure; the Pleneo hub handles the switching on its own.
Example
A typical room setup might look like this:
A Microsoft Teams Rooms system is connected to one USB port
A user plugs a BYOD laptop into the second USB port
What happens next:
RoomHub, in this example, switches control to the laptop automatically
The meeting runs from the BYOD laptop
When the laptop is unplugged, RoomHub switches straight back to the room system
Why it matters
Automatic USB switching keeps meetings smooth:
No manual input selection
No cable swapping mid-meeting
No confusion about which system is active
This lets a single room support both a permanent room system and ad-hoc BYOD use.
In summary
Pleneo hubs handles USB switching for you:
Two independent USB ports
Automatic switching to the most recently connected device
Smooth transition between the room system and BYOD
No setup or user action required
