Apple A1152 and MB112LL/B Mighty Mouse … What's the Difference?

I am looking for a replacement for my worn Mighty Mouse, and see that there are two similar models of the all white (grey scroll ball) wired Mighty Mouse. There is what is referred to as the "A1152" model ... and one called the "MB112LL/B" model. What is the difference between these two? I think it may have to do with some coming with an existing Mac on purchase … versus, on that is ordered separately.

Does anyone know the cable length of the "A1152" model ... and the "MB112LL/B" model?

The one I need to replace came with a 28 1/2" - 29" cable.

iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2012), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5), 2015 13" MBP, iPhone 4S, AppleTV

Apple has two different systems for its model numbers; one of them is the MX### format and identifies a specific model, while the A#### ones are used for product lines, and may refer to several models in a series.

On the bottom of the Mighty Mouse I now have, it shows the "A1152" model number ID …. and this one has the 28 1/2"-29" cable. Would all models indicated as the "A1152" (on the mouse bottom ID), be supplied with the same 28 1/2-29" cable? That's my big question now.
