Whereas Microsoft mice and Microsoft keyboards were previously controlled from two separate programs – IntelliPoint and IntelliType – the Mouse and Keyboard Center is responsible for both kinds of devices. 32- and 64-bit versions of the software are available, and the program integrates with Windows 8 and above's "Modern UI" interface.
The RSA-II requires a 20-pin cable to attach to the motherboard of the server. Without this cable the remote video facilities will still work, and if the external USB cable is connected, the remote keyboard and mouse will work—but nothing else (including power control) will function properly.
The PS/2 mouse connector generally replaced the older DE-9 RS-232 "serial mouse" connector, while the PS/2 keyboard connector replaced the larger 5-pin/180° DIN connector used in the IBM PC/AT design. The PS/2 keyboard port is electrically and logically identical to the IBM AT keyboard port, differing only in the type of electrical connector used.

Windows has always been at its best when used with a keyboard and mouse. Having it on a tablet with nothing but your fingers or a stylus to navigate with makes for a poor user experience.
The keyboard and the mouse are external devices plugged into the computer through connectors on an I/O panel on the back of the computer case. The monitor is also connected to the input/output (I/O) panel, either through an onboard port on the motherboard, or a port on the graphics card.
The keyboard itself was an intelligent device and had its own processor and 4 kilobytes of RAM for keeping a buffer of the sequence of keys that were being pressed, thus can communicate with the user if a fault is found by flashing its main LED in sequence:
An observer can typically watch the screen more easily (and less suspiciously) than the keyboard, and see which characters the mouse moves to. Some implementations of the on-screen keyboard may give visual feedback of the "key" clicked, e.g. by changing its color briefly. This makes it much easier for an observer to read the data from the screen.
