ATEN VGA / Audio Cable KVM cable Black 1.8 m

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

ATEN’s VGA/audio KVM lead is one of those boring-but-necessary bits of kit you don’t think about until you’re trying to squeeze one more connection out of a messy server rack. For £12.42 ex‑VAT, it’s decent value if you actually need a quality replacement/extra run for a KVM setup—especially in a UK office where cables often get swapped around, shortened, or damaged during re-cabling. ATEN also tends to be consistently reliable on the signal side, so you’re less likely to end up troubleshooting flaky video and “why does the audio cut out?” situations later.

That said, it’s only worth buying if it matches what your KVM expects. If you’re building a new KVM deployment, be careful—this is the kind of cable you choose because it fits your existing ports, not because it upgrades anything. Also, 1.8 m is fine for desk-to-rack style runs, but in bigger spaces it can become restrictive. I’d buy it for admins maintaining or expanding an ATEN KVM install; I wouldn’t bother if you’re unsure of compatibility or if your layout needs longer runs—those cases are where you end up wasting money and time.
