The Y-mouse Sun Adapter for USB is the fast, easy way to connect a KVM to a SUN USB port. It installs without opening the computer, using drivers already on the system. Just plug it in and go.

Newer SUN system computers have abandoned PS/2 keyboard input in favor of USB. This is fine as long as your SUN computer can be operated from their new USB keyboard alone, but many SUN computers are part of a group run from a single workstation through a KVM. Most KVMs don't support USB input hardware, so how do you connect the new Sun to your system? You can't.

To solve this problem, P.I. Engineering modified its Y-mouse PS/2 to USB Adapter for SUN. This Y-mouse not only adapts all of the standard PS/2 keyboard commands to USB, it also recognizes a special set of scan codes which have been assigned and translates them into equivalent SUN USB codes.

To support users who require the SUN "Stop" command, a special feature has been incorporated. When the Y-mouse microprocessor sees the combination of the "Win + Alt" keys, it fires the stop command.

This adapter is intended for Sun Microsystems systems.
