The six pins on the connector are all Can you tell me if it has six wires?

All of the things I have tested it on have worked! The mouse, keyboard, and numeric pad are all required. It works for everyone and I am not sure if it is true. It seems like I would need to cut the cable and take a look as their website does not specify. If it is an extension, then how is it possible to

Clicking on Model M keeps it running
4/5

In 2018, why would anyone need to have one of these? Is anyone really still using a PS/2 keyboard these days? Unless you've been living under a rock for the past two years, you probably find yourself trying to find a way to keep a vintage keyboard hooked up to your desktop so you can keep working on the project. I recently became unable to use my IBM Model M keyboard due to a faulty PS/2 extension cable following about eight years of use. It took me a while to get things back going again so I bought an extension cable. I haven't had any issues with it so far. There is only one knock off in one star because the male end of the cable (the one that fits into the computer) was pretty bent and there was no way to plug it A few jewelry pliers allowed me to reshape the ring in a couple of minutes. I'm happy to report that everything is working now. Hopefully, these will still be available when I need one the next time around.

I am very pleased with the product
5/5

This cable is typical of Trip Lite. This product works exactly the way it should, and it's very well made. The EcoNet Bulldog Z-I am currently using this to extend the functionality of the system I have a Wave Water Valve in my basement, and it works perfectly. Please take note A product like this is meant for indoor use only. I will not use it outdoors in the sun.

You are not the one who thinks so
3/5

As originally shown, this is not the case. The rounded connector on the machine was a sign that the unit was branded for Tripp Lite. There are many cheap china units available everywhere. The unit that I received was one of them. Was under the impression that I was getting a quality product. It is disappointing.

Worked for Logitech Group but no longer
5/5

As far as it's concerned, it's doing its The cable functions as a PS/2 port. The Logitech Group system is not compatible with it Usually, proprietary USB cables are used and DIN connectors are used as well. As long as it performs for its intended purpose, star removal is not required.

This cable is reliable and well made! Definitely extends the range of my GPS receiver to any location I need it to
5/5

I like the fact that the cable is "loose", it doesn't hold curls like some The cables also untangle pretty easily. I'm not sure why my other cables don't seem to be so nice.

I was very pleased with the results! To be able to move my keyboard and mouse further away from my tower, I used a couple of these
5/5

This worked for me very well! My connection between the extension and the source cable was sealed with a little duct tape so they would stay in place under stress.

5/5

The extension cord I needed was not available. As advertised, this product is reliable and accurate. My keyboard cord was too short for the back of the desktop computer, and I needed an extension cord. They were on time.
