Besides, the description states: "USB to 8 Pin Mini DIN Male" and I strongly suspect your track ball mouse has a male PS/2 type connector, so you will not be able to connect it directly to a USB port using this cable. **Q: how long is this cable?** A: Mine is six feet long. **Q: I’m trying to connect my video camera to my computer via S video. Is the 8pin mini din the same as an s video input?** A: I'm so sorry, I only know its working pretty well for MIDI signal information which are coming from my KORG Keyboard running to USB of Mac Pro. First YOU HAVE TO TEST IT (cable)for me it was the unique solution I can tell you, maybe try it **Q: The 8 pin mini din male end shown in your two pictures are different. which picture is correct?** A: To my knowledge, the 8 pin mini din is a standard configuration. In other words, there is only one configuration. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/86635127-ftdi-ft232-chipset-usb-to-8-pin-mini-din-male](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/86635127-ftdi-ft232-chipset-usb-to-8-pin-mini-din-male) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-10-04*
