What is RF Frequencies?
Wireless mice mainly use Radio frequencies to transmit data from the mouse to the computer. The most common type of RF used is the 802.11b or 802.11g. These frequencies operate at 2.4 gigahertz and at these frequencies a mouse can transfer data at pretty quick speeds, usually either 11 Mbps or 56 Mbps. 2.4 gigahertz frequencies are very stable and usually have little or no interference in a work or home environment. They also have a decent range of about 100 to 150 feet which is more than enough for mouse operation.
