[. . . ] What is the risk of interference between Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz and other wireless products? Just as your voice can go unheard by others due to other noises, so too can 2. 4GHz radio waves go unheard due to other radio interference. This issue is especially a concern as 2. 4GHz wireless technology uses an unlicensed band for transmissions. Fortunately the 2. 4GHz wireless technology was designed explicitly to be both a good citizen in these frequencies by not producing unnecessary noise but also to be able to avoid other radio waves. 3. What is the wireless range of Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz? 2. 4GHz wireless technology in its base implementation supports a range of 10 meters (33feet). Connection is guaranteed to be maintained up to this distance. Range is also impacted by building materials and interference. 4. Is the Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz encrypted? Yes, all the wirelessly transmitted data is encrypted and secured. Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz is one of the most secure desktops on the market today. The encryption algorithm is proprietary and uses 128bit equivalent secret key. This makes it very difficult to spy, even for an experienced hacker. 5. Does Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz generate harmful wireless waves? Harmfulness of the waves is due to the emission power of those waves. In order to avoid any risk for the user even in an extended use, 2. 4GHz technology has been designed to have an extremely low level of emission power. By comparison, the power of wireless waves emitted by a mobile phone would be the equivalent of the wireless waves emitted by two thousand Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz side to side. Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz is compliant to all wireless regulations in the countries of sales. 6. What is the difference between 2. 4GHz and Logitech 27Mhz cordless technology? Advanced 2. 4GHz cordless technology operates at a higher frequency than traditional 27MHz cordless devices, and promises improved cordless performance without compromise, especially in a busy office environment. Improved Reliability: 2. 4GHz cordless technology allows multiple users to work in close proximity, promising virtually interference-free operation around other cordless products. Improved Range: Traditional 27MHz cordless products guarantee an operating range of 2 meters. The operating range is significantly extended with 2. 4GHz products, allowing the user to control the device from up to 10 meters. 1 Logitech ­ Office Cordless Desktop 2. 4GHz FAQ version 1. 0 7. What is the difference between 2. 4GHz and Bluetooth wireless technology? Bluetooth is an open standard that every company can comply into (IEEE802. 15. 1) which allows compatibility with other devices but is not designed specifically for keyboard and mouse. On the contrary, 2. 4GHz wireless technology is a proprietary system and cannot be compatible with any other devices. This allows 2. 4GHz technology to be well suited for mouse and keyboard application, as all its features have been designed to reach the best fit for the dedicated application. Connection 8. How are the keyboard and the mouse connected to the receiver? The mouse and receiver have a unique wireless connection with the receiver that is preset at factory. [. . . ] Do I have to always turn "OFF" the mouse when not using it? When traveling, you should turn the mouse OFF to save battery power. The mouse movements in the bag keep the mouse active and would use the batteries If traveling in a plane, for security reasons, it is compulsory to turn OFF any wireless device. If not traveling, it is not necessary to turn it OFF, since optimized power management has been implemented in the mouse. However, if you want to further maximize battery life, you can turn the mouse OFF when away for a long period of time. 23. [. . . ]
