Can't connect Shader to Ray Switch

Quite possible I'm doing something wrong but I can't connect a standard surface shader to any input on the ray_switch shader. The screenshot doesn't show the no entry logo when hovering over the ray_switch shader.

I just see rayswitch_rgb (colors per ray) in your screenshot. You should use the rayswitch shader for connecting and adjusting shaders instead of colors.

Thanks @lee_griggs  - I totally spaced as in Redshift there is only a single ray switch shader rather than the two options in Arnold. My bad.
