Review on 💻 Kensington sd100 Notebook Docking Station K33419US: Enhanced Connectivity and Convenience for Laptops by Kristopher Rodriguez

As mentioned in other reviews, this is not a real docking station and I am very happy with that fact. Real docking stations are made for specific laptops, usually corporate style, and cost well over $100. I work in IT and see them often. They charge the laptop, provide it with Ethernet and also offer a video output. I haven't found any decent USB docking stations that can support high definition video output as the USB 2.0 specification can't handle that kind of bandwidth. Perhaps USB 3.0 will become a reality as USB 3.0 becomes more popular. Box, plugged it into my acer netbook and windows 7 pro found all the drivers except the ethernet driver, i changed my windows update settings to search the internet and it found the ethernet driver and installed it automatically. All USB ports work, audio port works. I didn't have a chance to test the microphone port. Cons: Not really, my only wish is that they provide a better quality USB AB cable to connect the dock to the computer, as with too much movement (although I don't intend to at all) the USB cable A side will fall out, which I have experienced with many USB AB cables. Great "dock", not a real dock, read the specs and know what you're buying and it's a great deal compared to other options. I bought this item for [.] when Newegg sold it for [.], both with free shipping. Excellent quality of the docking station itself, it doesn't feel flimsy or fragile.
