Key Board Connections....?

Hope this is the correct forum. Here is my dilemma. I got a new desk. And my key board to the tower cable is short. Cannot get to the center of the desk. So, my question, do they sell adapters similar to extension cords such as we use for electricity in the house. I am serious in this question

Want to move the keyboard for my conveience.

I would really appreciate your help on this question.

Thank you again and Happy Holiday

    Should be able to purchase one at any decent computer store. Ive included a link below. Please note im just assuming your using a PS/2 keyboard

    Yes, what you want is a PS/2 keyboard extension cable...

    You may have good luck at a small mom&pop computer outlet store....bigger stores will just try to sell you on a new wireless keyboard system which may or may not be out of your budget but still more then a simple extension....

    look around for it you might see it as a keyboard extension cable, or might be a mouse extension cable

    There are some available, not many people stock them now. Alternatively you could get a USB keyboard and extensions for USB are easy to buy. Otherwise a wireless keyboard.

    small round connector (a PS/2 extension)

    rectangle (USB extention)

    doubt anyone has an AT keyboard anymore, but if it's reall really old, it might
