PS/2 KVM to USB computer link

This cable connects a USB-equipped computer to an existing PS/2 KVM switch. It uses a custom DB15 connector on the switch side and standard USB on the computer side. No software or adapters are required for operation. The six-foot length suits typical rack or desk deployments.

Windows, Mac and Sun Solaris support

The cable works with Windows, Mac and Sun Solaris hosts attached to compatible ATEN switches. It is not for connecting PS/2 computers to USB KVM switches. Builders needing multi-platform USB-to-USB KVM cabling should look at a different cable type.

Custom DB15 switch connector

The switch end terminates in a proprietary DB15 plug made for ATEN KVM units. This connector decides compatibility; the cable will not fit switches that use standard PS/2 or USB-B switch ports. Verify your switch model accepts this DB15 interface before purchase.

Questions about this item

What DB15 connector does the cable use to attach to the KVM switch?

The cable uses a custom-made DB15 end that plugs directly into compatible ATEN KVM switches.

Which connectors must be plugged in and in what order?

Plug the DB15 end into the KVM switch first, then connect the USB end to the computer; no software installation is required.

When would the cable need to be replaced?

Replace the cable if the connectors become loose, the jacket shows damage, or the link fails to carry video and USB signals reliably.
