PS/2 Cable EFB Elektronik EK323.2 2m M/M 6-p Mini-DIN White

The EFB Elektronik PS/2 cable EK323.2 is a 2-meter, male-to-male PS/2 connection cable with 6-pin Mini-DIN connectors on both ends. Designed for connecting legacy PS/2 keyboards and mice to compatible ports, the white jacketed cable provides a straightforward wired connection that supports stable data transmission between input devices and desktop systems or KVM switches.

Advantages

This PS/2 cable offers a durable PVC jacket and molded connector ends that help protect the 6-pin Mini-DIN plugs from wear during repeated plugging and unplugging. The 2 m length gives flexibility for desktop setups where devices are not directly adjacent to the host port. The standardized 6-pin Mini-DIN interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of PS/2 keyboards, mice, and legacy equipment, while the simple design minimizes signal interference and maintains reliable input response.

Suitable for

• Connecting PS/2 keyboards to desktop PCs and workstations
• Connecting PS/2 mice to computers or KVM switches
• Extending reach between PS/2 peripherals and host ports
• Integrating legacy input devices in office or home setups

Key specifications

• Cable length: 2 meters
• Connector type (both ends): 6-pin Mini-DIN (PS/2) male
• Cable gender: male-to-male
• Colour: white
• Intended signal type: PS/2 serial clock and data for keyboards/mice

How to use

Ensure both the computer and the input device are powered off before connecting the PS/2 cable. Insert each 6-pin Mini-DIN plug into the matching PS/2 port on the computer and the keyboard or mouse, aligning the plug keying to avoid bending pins. After secure insertion, power on the system; most operating systems will detect PS/2 keyboards and mice automatically. To disconnect, power down the host if possible and gently pull the molded connector by its body without twisting to avoid damaging the pins.

Recommendations

For reliable long-term use, avoid sharp bends and excessive strain on the cable near the connector ends. Keep the cable away from high-power electrical cables to reduce potential interference. When working with legacy systems, check device compatibility and port orientation before connecting to prevent mechanical damage to the Mini-DIN pins.
