PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3050 (PP3-00024) - Local Warranty
Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3050 — A Wireless Set for Laptop and Desktop
The Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3050 (PP3-00024) is a wireless keyboard and mouse set. Microsoft’s surviving description positions it as an upgrade for a laptop or desktop, compatible with all Surface models that have a USB-A port and with Windows 10, Windows 8 and Windows 7, with limited functionality on Mac OS X 10.7 to 10.10.
Encryption: Microsoft Publishes No AES Claim for This Model
This model is historically associated with AES encryption, and you will find that claim on other listings. Microsoft does not publish an encryption specification for this part number, so this page states none.
If encrypted wireless input is a requirement for your deployment, look instead at the Microsoft Wireless Desktop 900 (PT3-00027), where Microsoft explicitly publishes 128-bit AES encryption on the keyboard, or the Wireless Desktop 850 (PY9-00018), where Microsoft publishes an AES 128-bit encryption feature. Both are listed separately on this store.
What Microsoft Still Publishes
Microsoft’s surviving listing for this set has lost its specification table. What remains is the product name, the marketing description, the operating-system note above and the Surface USB-A compatibility statement. Microsoft publishes no component names, connection type, wireless range, battery information, tracking technology, resolution, button count, dimensions, weight, colour or warranty term for this set, and no current Microsoft page displays the part number PP3-00024. Supplied by SourceIT in Singapore with a GST invoice and local support. For a written quotation, current stock position or delivery lead time, contact our team.
Specification note. Microsoft has withdrawn its own-brand PC accessory catalogue and the specification table has been removed from the surviving listing for this set. Note in particular that no current Microsoft source publishes an AES encryption claim for the Wireless Desktop 3050. Despite the model’s historical association with AES, we therefore make no AES claim for it. No current Microsoft page displays the part number PP3-00024. Contact SourceIT and we will obtain the distributor build sheet in writing before you order.

Specifications Microsoft Does Not Publish for This Product
The following are commonly asked about but are not stated on any current official Microsoft source for this part number, so SourceIT does not quote them: component names, an AES encryption claim, connection type, wireless range, battery type and battery life, mouse tracking technology, resolution in DPI, button count, keyboard layout, whether it has a palm rest, dimensions, weight, colour and a manufacturer warranty term. We would rather leave a field blank than print a figure we cannot substantiate.
Product Status, Availability and Warranty
Microsoft has withdrawn its own-brand PC accessory catalogue. The microsoft.com/accessories product pages for this range now redirect to Microsoft's general hardware-warranty and PC-accessories support pages, and the Microsoft Store Singapore PC-accessories collection returns no results. Microsoft has published no formal discontinuation notice for this product; the evidence is the removal of the pages themselves.
The Microsoft Store listing for this set still resolves but its specification table has been removed. The product shows as out of stock at Microsoft. Microsoft has published no end-of-support date.
Microsoft does not publish an encryption specification for this part number. No Microsoft source publishes an AES claim for the Wireless Desktop 3050, so this page states none.
Microsoft’s surviving compatibility note lists Windows 10, 8 and 7 but not Windows 11. That is a gap in Microsoft’s published list rather than a statement of incompatibility, but if you are buying for a Windows 11 fleet, ask us to confirm first.
This listing shows zero inventory in our system. Contact SourceIT for the current stock position and lead time before you raise a purchase order.
Warranty Position
Microsoft no longer publishes a warranty term for this product. Microsoft's current PC accessory warranty page states only that the accessory "comes with a 'limited hardware warranty' depending on the device" and directs the buyer to check their proof of purchase to identify the warranty period. SourceIT therefore does not quote a manufacturer term for this item. Ask our team to confirm the warranty position in writing before you order.
The local warranty named in the heading of this listing is SourceIT's own commercial term, not a figure published by Microsoft. Ask our team to confirm the term in writing with your quotation.
Compatibility, Setup and Software
Microsoft publishes Windows 10, Windows 8 and Windows 7, with limited functionality on Mac OS X 10.7 to 10.10. Windows 11 is not named on the surviving Microsoft listing.
Microsoft states compatibility with all Surface models that have a USB-A port, which implies a USB-A connection, though Microsoft no longer publishes the connection type explicitly.
This set is not named in the current Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center supported-device list, so treat software customisation as unconfirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions — Microsoft Wireless Desktop 3050
Does this set have AES encryption?
Microsoft does not publish an encryption specification for this part number. The model is historically associated with AES and you will see that claim elsewhere, but no Microsoft source publishes it, so this page states none. If encrypted wireless input is a requirement, choose the Wireless Desktop 900 or the Wireless Desktop 850, where Microsoft does publish an AES claim.
Does it work on Windows 11?
Microsoft’s surviving note lists Windows 10, 8 and 7 only. That is a gap in Microsoft’s published list rather than a statement of incompatibility. Ask us to confirm if it matters.
Does it work on a Mac?
Microsoft states limited functionality on Mac OS X 10.7 to 10.10, which will not cover a current Mac.
Is it Bluetooth or does it use a receiver?
Microsoft no longer publishes the connection type. Its Surface USB-A compatibility note implies a USB-A connection. Ask us and we will confirm from the distributor build sheet.
What batteries does it take?
Microsoft does not publish a battery type or battery life for this set.
What warranty applies?
Microsoft publishes no warranty term for this set. Its current PC accessory warranty page directs buyers to their proof of purchase. SourceIT supplies it with local support and a GST invoice. The local warranty named in the heading of this listing is SourceIT's own commercial term, not a figure published by Microsoft. Ask our team to confirm the term in writing with your quotation.
