(the sensitivity of ANY bluetooth receiver does NOT increase with the power transmitted, a class 1 transceiver has the same receiver sensitivity as any bluetooth receiver and is only different in its power transmitted, this is why two dongles may be required. They require that the end user have at least some common technical sense.
is the other reason that these class 1 transceivers are vanishing. turn off your computer's built in Bluetooth and turn off your other Magic Mouse and make connection via dongle only !!!!įailure to do this CAN burn out your built in BT transceiver because the power is so high.

Pair this mouse to your computer using the dongle (s) and use it for nothing else. It all depends on how close your mouse is to the dongle and how close your computer is to the dongle.īuy a Magic Mouse just for use with your Apple TV. under most circumstances, a class 2 is sufficient) (or whatever class of transceiver provides the range. If your computer's BT is not strong enough to reach the dongle, then you will need to give your computer AND the Apple TV a class 1 dongle. In that case, you "can" use your Apple TV USB port as the power source for the dongle.

It is possible that you will require two of these devices in some circumstances to achieve full range because your mouse transmitter is very low powered as is your computer. (sometimes "typically" is only 10-15 feet) Numerous class 3 dongles (30 feet) are also available if that is all the distance you require but your built in BT will "typically" give you this distance.
This is one of the reasons why so many class 1 Bluetooth transceivers are discontinued for sale. Long story short, this transceiver can interfere with MANY types of wireless devices including cell phones and wireless phones and your neighbor's bluetooth connections. In short, class 1 extends your bluetooth range up to 300 feet (100 meters). These are typically sold as a USB Dongle. Specifically, you require a Bluetooth Class 1 transceiver. With respect to Desktop Macs and similar using "mirroring", there is a solution but is vanishing rather rapidly due to RF interference problems created. The technical answer is, the new Apple TV will support a wireless keyboard but not a mouse.
