Mini din cable

This is used to connect devices with a Mini DIN 6-pin connector. This type of connector was widely used in computers for connecting keyboards and mice via a PS/2 connection. The cable has a Mini DIN 6-pin male connector on both sides. This connector was used for computer peripherals for a long time before USB became the standard. The Mini DIN connector has a standardized keying, so the plug can only be inserted into the socket in one way. This prevents the connector from being inserted incorrectly and protects the pins from damage. Mini DIN connections are used for transporting digital data signals between peripherals and computer systems.
