Although not tested thoroughly I use...
http://www.amazon.co.uk/USB-2-0-Manual-Switch-Peripherals/dp/B005LMX0IG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1383671494&sr=8-1&keywords=USB+manual+switch
to switch a keyboard and wireless mouse (connected to a USB hub)
between a Beagleboard and Raspberry Pi. Although I haven't tried it on
the Iyonix it would be worth trying one out for 9 UKP to see if it
works. The switch requires three cables - USB, type A (the standard USB
plug we are all familiar with) to USB, type B (commonly used on
printers). Amazon also sell these very cheaply.
Hint - the above assumes the common connection to your USB hub uses a
USB, type B connector.
All the best
Richard
