Portable crash-cart adapter

The StarTech NOTECONS02 turns a laptop into an instant KVM console for servers, PCs, ATMs and kiosks. It connects through a single USB 2.0 Mini-B port on the laptop and provides a VGA male connector plus a USB-A male connector for the target machine. The adapter draws power from the server USB port so no external supply is required.

Integrated cables and compact build

The unit measures 0.60" x 2.90" x 4.50" and weighs 0.38 lb, with all KVM cables built into the housing. This eliminates loose cables when moving between racks and keeps the footprint small enough for a laptop bag. The VGA link supports 1920 x 1200 resolution at 60 Hz with auto scaling and centering for 4:3 sources on widescreen displays.

Replaces a dedicated crash cart

Administrators who currently wheel a separate monitor, keyboard and mouse between racks can carry this adapter instead. The jump is worth it when you need BIOS-level access, screenshot or video capture up to 1920x1200, and file transfer between the laptop and the connected system without extra hardware. Buyers who require multi-port switching or support for digital video inputs such as HDMI or DisplayPort will need a different solution.

Questions about this item

What video resolution and refresh rate does the USB 2.0 KVM adapter actually deliver to my laptop screen?

The adapter captures and scales the server's VGA output up to 1920x1200 at 60 Hz, so the console view on your laptop matches that resolution and frame rate.

What physical space and connectors does the integrated cable assembly need on the server side?

It plugs into one USB Mini-B 5-pin port and one VGA 15-pin high-density D-Sub port on the target machine, and the dongle itself measures 0.60" high by 2.90" wide by 4.50" deep.

How do I get the laptop console running, and which step do people usually miss?

Connect the USB Mini-B and VGA plugs to the server, plug the USB-A end into the laptop, launch the console application, then enable file-transfer and video-capture features in the software — skipping that software enable step is the common oversight.
