This device converts PS/2 Mouse, PS/2 Keyboard and PC Monitor signals into their corresponding Mac-ADB compatible signals for use by a Mac computer. Users can hot- plug the PS/2 Keyboard and the PS/2 Mouse at any time to operate the Mac. This converter supports a “Power ON/OFF” key to take the place of the “Power ON/OFF” key of the Mac Keyboard. Compatible with B005-002-R, B005-004-R and B005-008 KVM Switches.
