Question: Does this support a wireless mouse and keyboard set up?
Answer: Thank you for your inquiry,
It is possible that the Aten CS1792 would support Wireless Keyboard and Mouse, but since the KVM vendor does not state explicit support for it, we are unable to guarantee compatibility in a specific environment.
For more information on using a Wireless Keyboard / Mouse with a KVM Switch, please refer to our Wireless Keyboard & Mouse with a KVM Switch Guide.
Please let us know if there is anything else we can ever help you with!
