Default External device for handling multicam?

I heard that there is some device, like a box with a handle (that you can see on AB-roll switchers) that can connect to a computer and supports Premiere and you can use the handle to switch from camera 1 to camera 2 with transitions. (like with the switcher).

What is this device called? I'd like to look it up!

Thanks!

Why not just use the multi camera functions of Premiere Pro? It will cater for up to four cameras.

That's what I do now but after I do all the cuts, I need to go through it to add some dissolves and effects. (Yes, I use the shortcuts "page down" and "ctrl+d") but it would be a lot easyer if all the transitions were done live during the playback and recording.
