Cordless Keyboard & Mouse

10/23/2008 9:06 PM

Hi guys,

I have four PCs located in one room. I plan to make keyboards & mouse wireless/cordless to control each PC remotely. Is there any possibility that this will not work for the reason that if I will try to move the mouse of one PC, the other PCs will be affected also? (I am thinking that wireless keyboards and mouse are usually communicating via frequency waves so I think, what if at least two of those cordless mouse or keyboards have the same frequency, then the problem will come.)

Each wireless keyboards & particularly mice should have there own wireless optical receiver connected to each pc. When connected it roams and hooks up to that particular keyboard/ mouse combination.

In short I can't see any foreseeable problems, they will not work except on there own dedicated system.

Hello rolando.tuazon:

I have a wireless mouse and keyboard. And as far as I know they have a choice of two frequencies.........Maybe if you get two or three brands the frequencies will not be the same and you will reach your goal?

I suggest doing a search and look at the technical side under frequencies to see if different makers use different frequencies.

That is as far as my knowledge on cordless mice goes.

hello, Why not use a 4 ch KVA and install a single wireless keyboard and mouse. It should work because the wireless link simply replaces the wire links.

Just my thoughts, and it would give you more table space and you won't have to juggle all the keyboards and mouses.

Bluetooth should support 7 different channels. Sufficient for 3.5 computers and 3.5 sets of mouse + keyboard.
