ATEN 2L5202UP KVM Cable
Overview
The ATEN 2L5202UP is a 1.8-meter KVM cable designed to bridge older KVM switch hardware with modern computing devices. It terminates in a single SPHD-15 male connector on one end, intended for the KVM switch port, and splits into a VGA male connector for video and a USB A male connector for keyboard/mouse input on the other. This specific configuration is critical for maintaining compatibility with certain ATEN KVM switch models and servers or computers that utilize these legacy connections.
Compatibility
This cable is engineered to interface with KVM switches featuring SPHD-15 ports. It is compatible with ATEN KVM switches that require this specific connection type, enabling the connection of VGA video signals and USB HID (Human Interface Device) peripherals. Verify your KVM switch documentation to confirm SPHD-15 port requirements for video and USB peripheral connectivity.
Installation Notes
The cable is 1.8 meters in length, providing moderate reach for connecting equipment within a rack or workstation. The VGA connector supports standard analog video signals, while the USB A connector handles keyboard and mouse data. Ensure both the SPHD-15 port on the KVM switch and the VGA/USB A ports on the connected computer or server are clean and free of obstructions prior to connection. The cable's black color helps with visual identification in dense cable management environments.
