Wide as a credit card (5.2 cm) and 10.5 cm long, the Kensington UH1400P is however thick enough (1.2 cm) to integrate an RJ45 port. The generously long USB-C cable (22 cm) is unfortunately neither detachable nor braided.
The metal shell is decked out with a plastic insert at the RJ45 socket and the gray color is reminiscent of Apple MacBooks.
The connection consists of two USB ports and the SD / MicroSD card reader on one side. On the other, we find the HDMI port, a USB port and a USB-C Power Delivery port. The RJ45 port located at the opposite end to the USB cable completes this connection provided.
Let us now detail the standards compatible with these ports. The USBs are to the USB 3.2 standard (5 Gb/s) to theoretically reach 600 MB/s. The card reader is to the UHS-1 standard and must therefore reach 104 MB/s. The HDMI port is announced by Kensington as an HDMI 2.0 port, and should therefore support 4K definition at 60 Hz. The RJ45 port is Gigabit standard and should therefore be close to 120 MB/s; enough to take full advantage of a fiber connection. Finally, the USB-C Power Delivery port can support charging up to 85 W, to properly power an ultraportable, for example.
After having solicited the Kensington hub for a very long time, the passage to the thermal camera reveals a uniform temperature of just under 39 ° C. Nothing to worry regarding, since the shell is warm to grip, but not hot.
