Product Features
Technical Overview
This KVM cable features a precise connector configuration to handle video, keyboard, and mouse signals simultaneously. On one end, a single HD-15 male connector interfaces with the KVM switch, while the other end splits into three distinct connectors: an HD-15 male for video, a PS/2 (Mini-DIN) male for keyboard, and a USB Type A male for mouse or peripheral connectivity.
The all-in-one construction eliminates the need for multiple separate cables, reducing tangles and improving airflow in rack environments. The cable is built with molded connectors for enhanced strain relief and longevity, and its black color ensures a professional, low-profile appearance in any IT setting.
