This adapter provides a straightforward hardware connection between a PS/2 keyboard or mouse and a standard USB Type-A port. It is useful when connecting legacy PS/2 peripherals to computers or KVM switches that offer only USB inputs, without the need for software drivers.

The adapter is built from ABS plastic and is identifiable by its green colour, which follows the PS/2 keyboard colour-coding convention. The PS/2 female socket accepts a 6-pin mini-DIN connector, and the USB A male plug fits any standard USB Type-A port.
