I have a Belkin F1D094 Omni Cube, with no cables, any one have a configuration of the pins for the ps/2 mouse and keyboard.

The cables male to male, are the pins mirrored so pin one on the switch goes to pin one on the pc eg pin 1 to pin 2, pin 3 to pin 4, pin 5 to 6 or do they cross over pin 1 to pin 1 etc.?

Looks like only 4 wires used.. ground and vcc could short if I get it wrong.

Have the plugs on order, only need short cables so going to make them.

Many thanks

I Like Charity Shops, they're like steam and GOG but cheaper.

Did you do a search for Belkin KVM cables on ebay? You should be able to find sets cheap (if you are in the US).

No cheap UK always over priced, £10 each for 2 meter, need 8, also hiding 16 meters of cable won't be easy
