Ultra-thin laptops and 2-in-1 convertibles like the Microsoft Surface Pro offer great mobile productivity and sleek good looks. But that also means they usually come up short on connectivity ports. As a result, you’re constantly plugging and unplugging peripherals. That’s where the SD3500v USB 3.0 Universal Docking Station comes in. It turns one USB port into six so you have access to all your peripherals, including keyboard, mouse, printer and external hard drive. And with dual HD video output, you can add two external monitors to boost productivity. The dock’s two USB 3.0 ports support super-speed data transfer of up to 5 Gbps.
- Connect two additional screens with 1 DVI Out & 1 HDMI Out: Expand your workspace by adding additional monitors. Connect your DVI monitor to the DVI port or use the included DVI>VGA adapter to connect your VGA monitor. If you've got an HDMI monitor, you can connect directly into the HDMI out port.
- Extend Mode: Extend your workspace by making it bigger. Extend mode allows you to share your whole desktop across multiple screens. Ideal for improved productivity by working with, and viewing, multiple applications at the same time.
- Clone Mode: Allows you to replicate the same content on your second display as you do on your master display.
- 2 Front USB 3.0 Ports: Two fast and powerful USB 3.0 ports are positioned on the front of the dock for when you want to charge a phone or tablet, or transfer data from another device. Headphone and microphone input ports are also conveniently within reach when they’re needed.
- 4 Rear USB 2.0 Ports: Connect all your peripherals with 4 USB ports. These ports are strategically located on the back of the docking station to help keep your printer, keyboard and mice cables or wireless dongles hidden from view.
- Connect two additional screens with 1 DVI Out & 1 HDMI Out: Expand your workspace by adding additional monitors. Connect your DVI monitor to the DVI port or use the included DVI>VGA adapter to connect your VGA monitor. If you've got an HDMI monitor, you can connect directly into the HDMI out port.

Product Manuals
Q: What is Clone Mode used for?
A: Clone Mode replicates the content from your main display onto your second display.
Q: How many USB 3.0 ports are on the front of the docking station?
A: There are 2 USB 3.0 ports located on the front of the docking station.
Q: Where are the USB 2.0 ports located?
A: The four USB 2.0 ports are located on the back of the docking station.
Q: Does this docking station have a headphone jack?
A: Yes, the Kensington Docking Station has a headphone jack for your convenience.
Q: How many screens can I connect to this docking station?
A: The Kensington Docking Station allows you to connect a maximum of 1 additional screen.
Q: Can I connect a DVI monitor to this docking station?
A: Yes, you can connect a DVI monitor directly to the DVI port, or use the included DVI to VGA adapter for VGA monitors.
Q: Will this support a 3 year old HP Envy laptop
A: Without knowing exactly which model of Envy you have, the most important thing is that the dock connects by USB 3.0, so if your Envy doesn't have any spare USB 3.0 ports, that would be a problem. This would be the old style, larger USB port. Some laptops these days only have USB-C ports, which wouldn't work for this dock, at least without some converters.
A: When you plug this into the USB 3.0 port of your laptop, you will gain a DVI (or VGA via included adapter) port and a separate HDMI port for two monitors via this device. If your laptop has a HDMI out port, you may be able to add a third monitor to that port, allowing a total of four displays (which includes your laptop display). So, with this device, you can connect to a VGA monitor, even if your laptop does not have a VGA port on it.
