The ongoing advances in technology and way of connecting peripherals to the computer means that even the cables going into our computers have to change from time to time and this is also the case of the PS2 cables, which have gone a little old with time. Many old mice for example have a PS2 connection, but what happens when one wants to connect them to the shiny new computer which has only USB ports?

To begin with, the PS2 to USB converter offers the possibility of hooking up a peripheral which has PS2 connection with a USB port. They come as slim little device but the vast majority of them on the market are simple adapters which change the plug shape to match the outlet. This works fine for some devices, but for most of them, one needs a converter, a special integrated circuit inside the adaptor which also transforms the signal from one type to another.

Furthermore, the advantage of easily connecting the desired device to the computer could in an instant be overturned by this subtle difference between a converter and an adaptor. Double checking the type of plug and specifications is a good advice also for the USB to PS2 converters which make the transitions from new device to old computer if one does not want to go back to the store with an adaptor which is not recognized by the computers software.

Moreover, connecting with a PS2 to USB converter an old keyboard to a small computing device such as a netbook is not advised since the old hardware used to pull a lot of current out of the computer as compared to todays gadgets. This gives the netbook hardware a lot of strain as to cope with the extra current and could in some cases end up in a burned USB port in good cases and for the unlucky of you out there even a broken netbook so asking a specialist in the field would be a tip to remember in this case.

All in all, the PS2 to USB converter and the mirror of it are great ways to connect hardware from different generations as long as one considers the limitations of this kind of connection as well as the fact that there are modern keyboards and mice which have a large number of buttons that cannot be recognized by the PS2 connection.
