The ATEN KA7520 is a PS/2 KVM adapter cable that connects a KVM switch to a target computer’s video, PS/2 mouse, and PS/2 keyboard ports, making it suitable for users managing compatible rack-mount or desktop servers.
Recommended For
- Administrators connecting a VGA-equipped server with separate PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports to a compatible ATEN KVM switch.
- Data-center and server-room teams managing rack-mounted or desktop systems that need a compact computer-side adapter for KVM access.
- IT staff maintaining legacy PS/2-and-VGA computers on a supported ATEN KVM installation, where keyboard and mouse emulation can help keep a server operating when its KVM connection is moved.
- Technicians who need to add or remove a computer from a compatible ATEN KVM setup without powering down the switch.
Real-World Use Scenarios
- When adding a legacy server with VGA video and PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports to a compatible ATEN KVM installation, the KA7520 links those computer ports to the KVM system so the server can be operated from its shared console.
- In a rack with several servers, an administrator can use the KA7520 to connect a PS/2-based server to a compatible ATEN KVM switch, making it accessible through the shared KVM console rather than requiring a separate local keyboard, mouse, and monitor.
- When a server is disconnected from the KVM port or moved to another port, the adapter’s keyboard and mouse emulation is intended to help the server continue operating smoothly during the change.
- When expanding a compatible ATEN KVM setup, an administrator can add or remove a connected computer without powering down the KVM switch, helping avoid a switch shutdown during routine changes.
- For a compact rack or desktop server setup, the small, lightweight adapter module can sit near the target computer while connecting its VGA video and PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports to the KVM system.
