Kensington Port Replicator Driver

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This port replicator makes is easy to have a laptop as my only computer.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just pugged it in and it worked. The new computers do not come with enough ports. This port replicator adds ports for every thing I needed to plug in and more.

Perfect to connect USB-A devices to my MacBook without needing a bulky port replicator or USB hub. I use this cable on the colorimeter for calibrating my monitor and it works great!

I've been using this model of Kensington trackball for at least 10 years. It is the best, I think. I was at first dismayed by how stiff the ball movement was, but sure enough, as other reviews have said, after using it only a little (or just rolling the ball around, unconnected, for a few minutes), it loosened up and now feels like my old one. I did have some trouble with the latest driver, but I think that this is because when I first plugged in the new mouse, I was hoping the old driver would still work. It didn't work correctly and then the system got confused. But after starting over, maybe rebooting (I forget), it now works great and is the best thing around for a trackball, IMHO. B*H had a really good price too! :-)

Used two of these on a Dell 7010 i5-3470 with the built-in Intel 2500 graphics, together with the built-in VGA port, to run THREE VGA monitors simultaneously under Windows 10 . Need to disable the Dell driver and then get the driver from Intel as Dell disable 3-screen functionality. I was a little sceptical at first whether these would do the job, as many 'active' adapters are a lot more expensive. An added bonis is that these don't need a separate USB port for power.

I'd had the XPH30R for a while as my daily driver and enjoyed it thuroughly, this replaced it for me almost immediately. The XPH25R is smaller and lighter, and despite the lower rating it appears every bit as bright as it's larger counterpart. It comes with the same soft, adjustable and reflective strap, the piece it clips into is slightly looser, making it easier to take the headlamp on and off and the same powerful magnet holds this thing to metal even more effectively. The ONLY con for me is that it charges with a micro-USB not a Type-C port like my XPH30R and XP11R, but it's still easily accessible without disassembling it, and the Zithion battery inside still has a Type-C port in a pinch. Coast knocked it out of the park with this one, can't recommend enough!

With a little driver/applet adjusting this worked a treat in my XPS laptop's combo 3.5 port. I also got it to work GREAT in my Pixel 4a..in both the 3.5 port and in the USB-C with an adaptor. Unreal value here...really improved my YT video's audio.

No knock on the product, but I had hoped it would connect my USB -B ported laser printer to the USB-C port on my notebook. It's an older printer and the port is USB 2.0 standard. The description for this cable said USB 2.0 so I hoped Windows would recognize the printer. The printer manufacturer (very well known Brand) does not provide a driver for Windows 10, but their Website says Windows 10 comes with a driver for it. This printer worked with my previous Windows 10 notebook via USB, and via ethernet worked with previous Windows versions back to XP. The computer would see the printer and list it's name, but would not install the driver. I tried a few other USB adapters with same problem and no luck. Turns out you need software in addition to hardware to make this conversion. I have since obtained a Startech port adapter for connecting my notebook to dual monitors, mouse, keyboard, ethernet, and the printer all through the notebooks 1 free USB-C port. Had to install drivers for the port adapter first, but now everything is working great. If you have a new printer, with installation software, this cable may work just fine. If your printer is old, you will need a port adapter with software.

If there is a better value in 5” driver bookshelf speakers out there, I’m unaware. The move to bring the port to the front made an already fabulous sounding speaker with smart design (Debut 1.0) even more versatile. Tight, solid low end down to 50-ish Hz. Smooth natural top end. Plenty of SPL for most living rooms and situations. Pair these with a well-tuned sub, and you’ve got a killer full range playback system. They need 20-30 hours of break in time. A great value at full MSRP. I took advantage of the absolute steal B&H pricing at $179. These are my second pair, purchased for my daughter’s small Brooklyn apartment. Could not be more pleased.

I wanted to free up a thunderbolt port that I normally use for a second monitor. After downloading a driver from the StarTech website, this little box allowed me to run the monitpr out of a usb port. Voila! It worked!
