Get maximum distance and convenience out of your network installation while saving money with Tripp Lite's B078-101-PS2 Server Interface Module.

The unit allows up to 100 ft. between your server and KVM switch and features a compact, lightweight design, which saves space and de-clutters your network application.

Convenient, Cost-Effective Solution for Your Network Connection Needs

With Tripp Lite's B078-101-PS2, traditional, thick KVM cables are a thing of the past. By using cost-effective Cat5e/6 cabling, the B078-101-PS2 frees up space in your server cabinet and allows for increased ventilation, longer cable runs and greater savings. This server interface module is needed to connect a PS/2 server to Tripp Lite's B070/B072-series of KVM switches.


Greater Distance—Greater Flexibility


Using Cat5e/6 cabling allows for your server to be located up to 100 feet away from the KVM switch that controls it. By eliminating bulkier KVM cables, the B078-101-PS2 also allows for cabling to run through conduits and other tight spaces, guaranteeing maximum flexibility when setting up your network application.

Plug-and-Play Convenience

With the B078-101-PS2, there is no software or external power needed. Simply plug the PS/2 and HD15 connectors into the server to be controlled, run the Cat5e/6 cabling to your KVM and you're ready to go. The unit connects a server or computer with an HD15 connector for video and PS/2 type connectors for mouse and keyboard control to a KVM switch with Cat5e/6 (RJ45) connectors.


Innovative, Compact Design


The B078-101-PS2's compact, lightweight design allow for flexibility when connecting it to a server or computer. The unit's form factor allows it to fit in tight spaces and to free up space where traditional KVM cabling might limit ventilation and accessibility. The B078-101-PS2 is also environmentally responsible by maintaining Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) compliance in its design and manufacture.

3-Year Warranty

For your peace of mind the B078-101-PS2 is backed by a three-year warranty and a rapid-response replacement policy that's unmatched in the industry.
