A component video switch would most commonly be used in domestic situations connected to a television. It allows multiple devices to be connected via component cables to a televisions which normally only have one set of input sockets. The user can then change the input to the television with a flick of a switch rather than time consuming unplugging and plugging in of different cables and sockets.
