Cable Choice USB-A Male to ps2 Female Adapter Review
In order for this device to work, the keyboard must already support USB (dual PS/2 USB connectors). Why would one need a passive converter for the PS/2 connection? KVM? I don’t know. Anyway, this product receives a poor review because the casual buyer (me) desires to use an older PS/2 only keyboard on a USB system. An active converter is required. No where in the product description is this limitation defined, nor are there detailed specifications. I wasted $6 (no big deal) and six weeks to discover I needed a different adapter. The vendor issued me an RMA on the basis that the adapter did not identify itself as a HID and sent me another, which also did not meet my needs. Thanks for good service but no thanks for poor product description and not understanding the issue.


Excellent and quick service. In addition, I received a catalog for their other products and have ordered since. Great to do business with.

I needed the adapters to convert for donated PC’s to our church. The adapters work very well. But what I found to be the problem was being charged more for shipping the very small very light adapters then the original adapters cost. The 4 adapters cost $11.00 and shipping was $12.00.

Works great! If your keyboard/keypad originally shipped with an adapter like this then this product will work fine!

Very functional item. Can be used to connect any old keyboards and mice with a PS-2 interface to newer computers with only USB ports. The actual item is very cheap, but shipping costs quite a bit. Also, shipping is calculated per piece, so buying more than one piece doesn’t save on shipping.

Item was just as advertised . 1 penny plus s/h. I did not do my due diligence and failed to note in the specs or in the reviews that this item will not work with a keyboard that was not USB compatible.
