Lenovo GX31C95738 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Combo

Overview

The Lenovo 300 Wireless Combo, model GX31C95738, is a straightforward RF 2.4GHz keyboard-and-mouse bundle aimed at PC workstations where cable management matters more than feature bloat. Both units connect through a single USB Type-A nano receiver — one port consumed, zero drivers needed on most modern Windows systems — making this a practical choice for hotdesking stations, spare workstations, or refresh deployments where procurement teams need a known-quantity peripheral at repeatable cost.

The layout is US English, the color is matte black on both units, and the pairing is factory-set — pull the receiver from the box, plug it in, and both the keyboard and mouse are live. For integrators provisioning workstations at scale, that zero-configuration startup is the actual value proposition here.

Key Features

• RF 2.40 GHz Wireless (Keyboard): The keyboard transmits at 2.4GHz, the same band used by the majority of consumer and commercial wireless peripherals. Practical range in an open office is typically several meters — enough to work from across a small desk or a short-throw KVM cart without signal drop. No Bluetooth stack to manage, no pairing codes to input on each new machine.
• RF 2.40 GHz Wireless (Mouse): The mouse uses the same 2.4GHz receiver as the keyboard — both devices share a single USB-A nano dongle, keeping your port count down. On laptops or compact desktops where USB ports are at a premium, one receiver covering both peripherals is a real workflow advantage.
• Optical Sensor at 1000 dpi: 1000 dpi is the standard cursor-precision setting for general office work — document editing, browser navigation, email. It tracks reliably on most desk surfaces without a dedicated mousepad. Users who need fine-grained cursor control for CAD or graphics work should look elsewhere, but for the productivity workstation use case this combo targets, 1000 dpi is exactly right.
• Scroll Wheel: The mouse includes a physical scroll wheel — standard for document-heavy workflows where page navigation matters. No side-scroll tilt or programmable thumb buttons here; this is a clean, single-function scroll implementation that holds up across shift changes and varied users.
• Symmetrical Mouse Shape: The symmetrical design means left- and right-handed users can both use it without swapping hardware. For shared workstations or environments where equipment rotates between staff, that ambidextrous form factor eliminates a procurement headache.
• USB Type-A Interface: The nano receiver uses USB Type-A — the port type on virtually every business desktop and most laptops. No adapters, no dongles-on-dongles. In rack-mounted thin clients or embedded PCs with limited ports, the nano form factor keeps the receiver flush and out of the way.
• AA and AAA Battery Power: The keyboard runs on AA batteries; the mouse on AAA. Standard alkaline chemistry means you're sourcing replacements from any office supply order rather than managing proprietary rechargeable packs or USB charging schedules. For facilities teams, that's one fewer charging cable and one fewer failure mode to track.
• US English Layout: Ships in standard QWERTY US English. Keycap legends and key spacing match the layout expectation for North American deployments — no re-labeling, no workarounds for regional key placement differences.
• PC Compatibility: Spec'd for PC — validated for Windows desktop environments. This isn't a multi-platform peripheral with Mac-optimized modifier keys or ChromeOS mode switching; it's a focused, PC-workstation peripheral.
• Matte Black Finish: Both keyboard and mouse ship in matte black. Consistent color across both units simplifies workstation aesthetics in environments where visual uniformity matters — security operations centers, dispatch rooms, corporate training labs.

Integration and Compatibility

The GX31C95738 connects via a single USB Type-A nano receiver, compatible with any PC running a modern operating system that supports standard HID (Human Interface Device) drivers — which includes Windows 10 and Windows 11 out of the box. No additional software installation is required for basic keyboard and mouse functionality.

This combo pairs naturally with PC workstations and compact desktops used in surveillance monitoring stations or administrative back-office roles. If you're outfitting a security operations center with multiple operator stations, the matte-black finish and symmetrical mouse design keep the setup consistent across positions. For purchasing alongside display hardware, see the full peripherals catalog for complementary monitors and desk accessories.

The wireless range of 2.4GHz RF is sufficient for standard desk deployments. This is not a long-range wireless peripheral — expect reliable operation within a few meters of the receiver. For environments with heavy 2.4GHz RF congestion (dense Wi-Fi deployments, crowded open-plan offices with many wireless devices), minor interference is possible, though uncommon with nano-receiver designs at close range.

If your environment requires Bluetooth connectivity to avoid occupying a USB port entirely, or needs higher mouse resolution for precision work, consider a higher-spec peripheral from the input devices category.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the Lenovo GX31C95738 require any software or driver installation?

A: No. Both the keyboard and mouse use standard HID protocols, so they work with modern Windows PCs as plug-and-play devices. Plug the USB-A nano receiver into your PC and both peripherals are ready to use.

Q: Do the keyboard and mouse use separate receivers, or do they share one?

A: They share a single USB Type-A nano receiver. One port on your PC handles both the keyboard and the mouse.

Q: What batteries does the GX31C95738 use?

A: The keyboard uses AA batteries and the mouse uses AAA batteries. Both are standard alkaline sizes available from any office supply vendor.

Q: Is the GX31C95738 compatible with Mac or Linux systems?

A: Lenovo specs this combo for PC. Basic HID functionality may work on other operating systems, but it is validated and intended for PC/Windows use.

Q: What is the mouse resolution on the GX31C95738?

A: The optical mouse sensor runs at 1000 dpi — standard for office productivity work. It is not adjustable to higher dpi settings; if you need variable resolution, consider a higher-spec mouse.

Q: Can left-handed users use this mouse?

A: Yes. The mouse has a symmetrical shape, making it equally usable for left-handed and right-handed users.
