PSA ADP0001A 2-Power Adapter

Tired of juggling separate keyboards and mice when you need to switch between USB-only and legacy PS/2 ports? The PSA ADP0001A 2-Power Adapter bridges that gap, letting you connect a USB keyboard or mouse to a classic 6-pin mini-DIN (PS/2 style) socket with ease, so you can keep working without buying new peripherals.

PSA ADP0001A 2-Power Adapter - the simple solution for mixed-port setups

Many modern computers and laptops still offer only USB ports, while older desktops, industrial machines, or specialised workstations may only accept PS/2 connections. This mismatch can halt productivity, forcing you to replace perfectly good keyboards or mice. The PSA ADP0001A 2-Power Adapter resolves this issue by providing a reliable, plug-and-play bridge between the two standards. It lets you use your favourite USB input devices on equipment that only recognises the older PS/2 interface, eliminating the need for costly hardware upgrades and keeping your workflow smooth.
