5 of 5 Works great, less filling Monday, June 09, 2008
JT from Eugene OR
Kudos to Mr. Kennedy from me as well. The power to fully supply the needs of each port seems to be im'port'ant. I've had this about three weeks now, and so far it has been perfect except for losing the connection to my external keyboard one time. Other than that glitch which was during initial setup and has not reoccurred, it has been perfect. My HP laptop has 3 built in USB ports and one of them can't stay connected. A different no-name 7 port hub I purchased gave me nothing but trouble. I highly recommend this one. Who wants to mess around plugging/unplugging/rebooting all the time? These things should require no time and no thought. Was this review helpful?

5 of 5 High Power USB Hub Wednesday, April 09, 2008
AL from NY, NY
I bought this USB hub to replace my existing 7-port USB hub connected to a notebook PC. The main reason for my purchase is for the high power (thanks to Mr. Kennedy's review).
I just used this USB hub for one day. It meets my expectation. It was needed to connect my portable USB Hard Drive to two hub ports for enough power; now one port is enough. My pair of USB-powered speakers sound better in the mid-range and base (base demands more power to play)- that's the most important factor to me.
There are cheaper 7-port USB hubs available. But the higher price of this hub is definitely justifiable for the high power (of course if you need it).

5 of 5 Excellent, full power (4.0A) hub Friday, December 07, 2007
Tom Kennedy from Thornton, CO
To date this is the only USB 2.0 HUB I've found that is reliable and provides a full 0.5A (500mA) of power to each port. Actually, its power supply is even better than it needs to be at 4.0A. I have even run a 0.7A 2.5" hard drive (that's 0.2A more then is legal) with no problems whatsoever.
<p>
My only criticism of this product is that Kensington does not tell you that they provide you with a good power supply. (Their tech support didn't even know.) The only way I was able to find out was by picking one up at a local electronics store. Given that nearly all other USB hubs are crap, it would be nice if Kensington would be a little more boastful about their specs.
<p>
All the dozen or so USB devices I've tested with this hub have worked great. It's also quite small and stacks nicely. (They don't lock together or anything, but their rectangular shape makes them easy to organize on my desk.)
<p>
I would not by any other USB hub.

5 of 5 Pocket hub just works Wednesday, November 28, 2007
A Customer from somewhere, somestate
This is the second pocket hub i have purchased. After good performance on another Mac, i needed another and bought this again. I have mixed both USB 1.x and USB 2.0 items on the same hub and have the USB 2.0 items (scanner, thumb drive) still work at high speed through the hub to the USB 2.0 port on my Mac. I also have USB headset and USB Treo 700p adapter work just fine through it too. Haven't had anything not work through it yet. It just works. Was this review helpful?
