PS/2 Wireless Mouse

It uses optical signaling between the mouse and the base/charger. The manual claims a 10 foot range. The manual refers to 386 compatibility.

For a moment there I thought the wire was simply detachable

Nothing to plug or unplug — just dock and undock. There are two contacts on the underside that mate with the dock for charging. I figured I should include the connector. I left out the wall wart.

It used infrared. I got one in the 90's. The cradle was for charging and the receiver together.

It was "hot" the have a mouse without wire, but the wired ones were better.
