Abstract
A peripheral device operatively couplable to an information handling system includes a microcontroller, a storage device, a wireless radio, and a power management unit (PMU) to provide power to the hardware microcontroller, storage device, and wireless radio. The hardware microcontroller executes computer-readable program code of a wireless pairing anti-collision module to determine that a group ID pairing beacon from one of a plurality of competing pairing peripheral devices is not being broadcasted. When no group ID pairing beacon is detected, the hardware microcontroller initiates a pairing process with the information handling system and generates a passcode list for pairing via a hash loop algorithm. The hardware microcontroller transmits to each competing pairing peripheral device an indication that the peripheral device is operating as a gateway peripheral device that controls the timing of the pairing of each of the plurality of competing pairing peripheral devices to the information handling system.
