Cable Matters(2-Pack USB 2.0 M/F Extension Cable with On/Off Switch in Black - 1ft

I got these because I have a USB microphone and a USB webcam that I don't want to stay permanently connected due to potential security/privacy issues. In the past, I've been disconnecting and connecting the USB cables as needed, but this was not only getting very tedious to crawl under my desk, but it can also cause damage to the USB sockets when I'm connecting and removing cables so regularly! These USB extension cables with switches made perfect sense as a solution, and I can confirm they work great! However, the cables could have been better in some areas. The switch is pretty much in the middle of the cable, which is a bit of an annoyance in my opinion. I'd preferred for it to be as far onto the extender side as possible, because you want the switch to be as far away from your computer as possible so you don't need to reach! The switches don't reach my desk unfortunately, but I have managed to stick them onto the top of my computer so at least they're more accessible and you don't need to faff about with turning the usb socket multiple times to try and get it to fit. However, the plastic bottom of the switches are curved, which is extremely annoying because the sticky pads I attached to these don't work as well as they should. Only the ends of the switch button are stuck to my computer, because the middle bit is raised! It does still kind of stick to my computer, but it does move about a bit.... An annoyance. Overall, given the vast ease these have brought to my life, I can overlook the issues I've mentioned above and would highly recommend these!

These little extension switches do the trick when you want to enable/disable USB devices connected to your computer. I’m using them to control MIDI controllers, and they’ve performed exactly as they should. No issues with connected equipment, and the switches feel solid (i.e. they stay in position until you change it).

Needed this for a USB powered light that didn't have a power switch on it. This works exactly as described and expected. No issues at all.
