This link has a switch that enables the selection of either downloading or Interactive Knitting. It means that the cable can be kept permanently attached to both the E6000 console and bed. This avoids the need for repeated connection and disconnection of the link, and therefore also avoids wear and tear on the E6000’s sockets.

The other links do not have the switch and need to be disconnected after downloading, so even if Interactive Knitting is not required, we recommend using the E6000 Link 2.
