Sharing USB Type-B receptacles
The HDMI and VGA connectors on the connector panel share USB Type-B receptacles:

VGA
If two computers are connected to video connectors that share the same USB Type-B receptacle, you must
disconnect the USB cable from the first computer and connect it to the second computer if you want to
switch from one computer’s input to the other’s. For example, if a room computer is connected to HDMI 1
and a guest laptop is connected to HDMI 2, you must disconnect the USB cable from the room computer
and connect it to the guest laptop when you want to switch to the guest laptop’s input.
