PS/2 KVM adapter cable

The ATEN KA7520 connects a KVM switch to the video, PS/2 keyboard and PS/2 mouse ports of a target computer. It functions as a CPU module for rack-mount or desktop servers. Keyboard and mouse emulation keeps the server operating smoothly when disconnected from the switch or moved to a different KVM port. The cable supports hot-plug operation so computers can be added or removed without powering down the switch.

Check your server ports and switch link

Verify that the target computer provides one HDB-15 VGA port and two PS/2 ports for keyboard and mouse. The switch side requires an RJ-45 female connection for the link cable. Confirm the switch supports the adapter's firmware-upgrade capability. Ensure the video resolution you need does not exceed 1600 x 1200 at distances up to 40m, and note that 1680 x 1050 and 1920 x 1200 reduced-blanking modes are not supported.

Suits PS/2 server management.

This adapter suits administrators managing legacy servers with PS/2 and VGA interfaces through a compatible KVM switch. It is not for systems that only offer USB keyboard and mouse ports. Buyers needing native support for resolutions above 1600 x 1200 or reduced-blanking timings such as 1680 x 1050 should look at a different solution.
