Dave, I have one KVM that uses the males on the box, another that uses the females. All you need is a gender-bender (double female or double male, just depending) to fix it. It's usually a dirt cheap part and if you snug it up well when you attach the cable it'll be no fuss. Drives me nuts figuring out what I need, too, so I got in the habit of having one or two of each gender bender type around.

If you can't find it locally (shipping on little sutff like that can make these things more than they're worth sometimes). Try these

The first is local to me, the second I got a KVM switch from before and he had buckets of the gender-benders around pretty cheap.
