Important Parameters of Wired Keyboards

Layout

Keyboard localisation determines what language-specific symbols you get. Keyboards with Czech localisation will therefore have keys labelled ř, č, á, ř, etc.

Key Types

• Mechanical - pretty much the classic keyboard; high durability and good response.
• Low profile - quiet, similar to laptop keys.
• Chiclet - rectangular in shape with rounded edges, more space between the keys.

Keyboards with mechanical switches have a significantly longer lifespan than conventional keyboards. It’s a unique computer hardware component that virtually doesn’t age. Aside from gamers, this type of keyboard is also suitable for users who often type long text documents.

Function Keys

• Programmable keys - allow you to assign a variety of functions to individual keys to streamline controls and simplify your work.
• Macro keys - a single button press executes a whole set of commands. They are used to facilitate repetitive tasks.
• Multimedia keys - are popular because of their variety of multimedia features. They can be used to easily control your PC and other external devices.

Useful Wired Keyboard Features
