If you’re running a PS/2 KVM setup and you need distance, this ATEN 10m PS/2 KVM cable is a perfectly sensible way to extend your reach without getting into fiddly compatibility issues. At £33.74 ex-VAT, it’s not “cheap”, but it’s not crazy either—especially if you value fewer weird problems like intermittent keyboard/mouse detection, flickering behaviour, or the kind of signal integrity headache you get with no-name cables. ATEN tends to be reliable in the parts that actually matter for KVM (connectors and consistent wiring), so this is one of those purchases that stays boring—in a good way.
Who it’s for: anyone with a PS/2 KVM switch or target equipment that’s physically too far from where you want it (server rooms, clean desks, training rooms, shared admin bays) and you don’t want to rework the whole layout. Who should *skip it*: if your KVM is USB-only, this won’t help. Also, if you don’t truly need 10m—shorter is generally easier on signal quality—so don’t overbuy distance “just in case”.
