I want to convert an AT 5-pin to USB, will this do it?

I just saw the previous answer. An AT to PS2 adapter will keep you from having to rewire the original AT cord. You must use the Zeotek with an old IBM Model M keyboard because a passive adapter will not work. The connection has to be Model M --> AT to PS2 adapter --> Zeotek PS2 to USB

Yes. I am responding to your question on an AT 5-pin that is using the Ziotek adapter to USB. What you will need to do is first rewire the AT 5-pin to 6-pin PS2, there are guides on the Internet that show how to do this. I had already been using my old AT 5-pin as a 6-pin PS2 before I needed to convert it to USB. If you get the wiring correct, the AT 5-pin will work just like it did when connected to an AT computer with a 5-pin connector. NOTE: the electronic chip in the Ziotek that coverts PS2 to USB is the same as in other products that provide conversion of both, PS2 keyboard and mouse to USB, so your operating system will detect a HID-compliant keyboard and a HID-compliant mouse connected to the system even though you may be using a real USB mouse separately. This phantom HID-compliant mouse does not seem to interfere with the real USB mouse, but it will be there.

Mine has the 'purple' end on the key board wire and it worked. Just make sure you get a pigtail extension so it will not block other USB plugs on the back of your computer. Hope this helps...

Not by itself. You first need to get an AT 5 pin to PS2 adapter. Then plug the PS2 adapter into the Ziotek adapter. The Zeotek converts the power from a USB port into the power an old AT keyboard needs.

Sure, as long as your USB supplies 5V power, which most USB do, it is worth a try, as its only taking power, it wont work if there is no power, and there wont be any damages which I encountered, though you try at your risk.

Yes! that is exactly what I did, but you will only get USB 2.0 speeds I haven't had any problems with mine.

In order to use the USB connector , I have had to purchase a usb to mini usb cable. It hasn't arrived yet, so right now, that is the plan. Assuming I have the sex of the connectors correct I should be OK

Yes, that version is the old 30 pin. If possible, U could exchange it or they do make a 30 pin to 8 pin adapter that's pretty inexpensive and that will do the trick

by it self no but if you get a connector (usb female to 3.5mm male then it should work) here is a link on amazon to get one :http://www.amazon.com/Happy-Shopping-3-5mm-Female-Converter/dp/B00I6H153K/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid;=1415743587&sr;=8-5&keyword;s=usb+female+to+%223+5mm%22+male

I cannot say for sure other than this is a very generic usb to 3.5 adapter and would be shocked if it didn't.

If it's micro USB, probably not. I've been looking for a replacement for the X205TA, and even Asus doesn't have them (out of stock). They use some sort of proprietary interface, which is extremely frustrating!

It should act just as any other powered USB hub. Just make sure you have proper power supplied.

Yes, you just need to make sure you have the older model's USB to 30-pin cable.

Honestly, I don't see why not. I need this because of the interface between my motherboard and external connectors that had been broken while moving on my tower. The replacement was an upgrade to USB 3.0. My Tower 7 was years old custom built, but still faster than 75% of the PC being sold today. Worked like a charm and all I have to do is remove this connector when I decide to upgrade. Give it a shot, if not, send it back.

There are three ports. Mini, small, and full size usb. Will none of them work?

You can hook up +5v to +12v to the VCC pin if you have an external DC power source, otherwise you need to use the USB.

I had to buy a separate mini USB mini adapter, I think I got it from eBay. So technically, it didn't work as it was sold. Here's the adapter I bought-http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Pack-Lot-USB-A-Female-to-Mini-USB-B-5-Pin-Male-Adapter-AUA2-MN51-2PK-/270977749326?pt=US_USB_Cables_Hubs_Adapters&hash;=item3f1788514e

It's usb-configured therefore it should because it converts normal serial data to digital. However I recommend not to buy it due to its very limited capability. It's not worth the money spent.

With a 4 to 6 pin adapter it should work just fine, but it's hard to make a guarantee.
