MANHATTAN 178846 Wireless USB Keypad 18 Keys Black

Compact numeric entry for spreadsheets

The Manhattan 178846 is a wireless USB keypad with 18 full-size keys designed for office work. It connects through a small USB micro receiver that stays plugged into a laptop or desktop. The layout adds a dedicated number pad to keyboards that lack one, speeding up data entry in accounting or spreadsheet tasks. It is aimed at users who need portable numeric input without a full-size keyboard.

Silent operation with minimal power draw

The keypad has no moving parts that generate audible noise during normal typing. Power comes from the USB receiver link, so there is no separate charger or battery compartment to manage. Typical office use draws very little current from the host port, leaving the computer's power budget unaffected. The wireless link remains stable across a standard desk distance without noticeable latency.

Lightweight plastic build

The black plastic housing is light enough to carry in a laptop bag alongside a notebook. The USB micro receiver stores inside the unit when not in use, reducing the chance of loss. No driver installation is required on modern operating systems; the device is recognised immediately as a standard HID keyboard. The fixed cable-free design means no cable clutter on the desk, but it cannot be used while charging because there is no rechargeable battery.
