USB to PS/2 conversion

This adapter converts a single USB port into two PS/2 ports, letting you connect a PS/2 keyboard and mouse to a computer through USB. It is aimed at users with legacy PS/2 peripherals who need to attach them to modern systems lacking native PS/2 connectors. The 0.5 ft cable keeps the setup compact and tidy.

Plug-and-play installation

The adapter requires no external power supply, drawing all necessary power from the USB port itself. Supporting plug-and-play installation, it works immediately without driver installation on systems compatible with USB 1.1. This simplifies deployment for IT technicians or home users swapping peripherals between machines.

Legacy peripheral support

The single USB A male connector and two PS/2 female mini-DIN ports provide a direct link for one keyboard and one mouse simultaneously. It comfortably handles standard PS/2 input devices for everyday office or industrial use. It does not support devices requiring proprietary PS/2 signalling or higher bandwidth than the USB 1.1 interface allows.

  • 5 ft cable keeps legacy peripherals close to the computer
  • USB 1.1 interface works without extra drivers
  • Self-powered design draws no external power supply

Questions about this item

Will the USB 1.1 adapter need a firmware update or driver reinstall later?

The adapter is plug-and-play with no firmware or drivers to maintain.

What limits sustained use when both a keyboard and mouse are connected through the single USB 1.1 port?

Bandwidth is shared at USB 1.1 speeds, so heavy simultaneous input can introduce latency.

Does the self-powered adapter generate noticeable heat or fan noise during all-day operation?

It draws power from the USB port, runs silently with no fan, and stays cool under normal use.
