Saitek PC Gamer's Keyboard...USB??

[hereticiv]

I can't find the answer on the net...is there a usb connector on the keyboard itself for my mouse? (ie: does it act as a hub?) If not there is no way I'm buying it cause my new MX-1000 has a short cord and won't make from the area I have it sitting to a place on my desk...yes the mouse itself is cordless but I have a small desk and the recharge stand that transmitts the signal has to be away from electronic stuff and so I can only put it in one area on the opposite side of my desk compared to the tower
