SANOXY USB to PS/2 adapter

This adapter connects legacy PS/2 keyboards and mice to a modern USB port. It draws power directly from the bus, so no external supply is required. The unit complies with USB 1.0 and 1.1 specifications. It is built for users who need to keep older peripherals working on current hardware.

Who this suits

The adapter is intended for anyone using a standard PS/2 keyboard or a Microsoft IntelliMouse on a system that only offers USB ports. It also converts a PS/2 KVM port for USB connectivity. Buyers whose keyboards or mice use a different legacy interface, or who require simultaneous high-bandwidth data from both devices, should look at other solutions.

USB 1.1 bandwidth limit

The connection operates at USB 1.1 speeds, which governs the total throughput available for the combined keyboard and mouse traffic. This specification determines whether the adapter can support your particular input devices without lag or dropped signals.

Questions about this item

Does the SANOXY adapter draw noticeable power or generate heat when a PS/2 keyboard and mouse stay plugged in all day?

It runs on bus power from the USB port, so no external adapter is needed and heat output is minimal during continuous use.

What must my computer already have for this adapter to work with a PS/2 keyboard and mouse?

A free USB 1.0 or 1.1 port is all that is required; the adapter itself provides the two PS/2 sockets.

Will this adapter let me keep using my PS/2 keyboard and mouse through a USB KVM switch I already own?

Yes, it converts the PC PS/2 port of a KVM switch to a USB port, so legacy PS/2 peripherals work with the switch.
