This article covers Kensington SD2000P USB-C ドッキングステーション iPad Pro Windows ノートパソコン Surface MacBook Chromebook用.
The Kensington SD2000P (model K38260NA) is a USB-C docking station designed to turn a single USB-C laptop or tablet into a full desktop workstation. It supports a wide range of devices including iPad Pro (2018 and later with iPadOS 13.4+), Windows laptops, USB-C Surface devices, MacBooks, and Chromebooks. With 60W Power Delivery passthrough, a single 4K@30Hz video output via DisplayPort or HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet, and multiple USB 3.1 Gen1 ports, this dock simplifies your desk setup to a single USB-C cable connection. It's a practical choice for home offices, university students, and road warriors who need reliable wired connectivity without breaking the bank.
The dock connects to the host via an included 1m USB-C cable. On the back, you'll find:  Video: 1x DisplayPort 1.2++ and 1x HDMI 2.0 (use one at a time, supports 4K@30Hz)  USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-A: 2 ports (5Gbps, up to 5V/1.5A each for charging)  USB-C 3.1 Gen1: 1 port (5Gbps, up to 5V/3A for power delivery to peripherals)  Gigabit Ethernet: RJ-45 port * Kensington lock slot (lock sold separately) Compatibility covers Windows 10/11, macOS, iPadOS 13.4+, Chrome OS, and Surface devices. The dock also supports VESA mounting (bracket K34050WW sold separately) for under-desk attachment. Note that the USB-C port on the host must support DisplayPort Alt Mode and Power Delivery for full functionality.
Released in early 2019, the Kensington SD2000P is still widely available through major retailers like . Check the retailer's page for the latest price. It comes with a 3-year warranty and lifetime technical support. Positioned as a mid-range universal USB-C dock, it offers solid essentials: 4K@30Hz video, USB 3.1 Gen1 speeds, and 60W PD charging. It's not a Thunderbolt 4 or USB4 dock, so users needing dual 4K displays or 40Gbps data throughput should look elsewhere. However, for single-monitor setups with standard peripherals, it delivers reliable, fuss-free operation.
iPad Pro users: Ideal for those who want to extend their iPad's display to an external monitor while charging and connecting a wired keyboard, mouse, and Ethernet. Great for light productivity, note-taking, and media consumption. However, note that iPadOS may limit HDMI output to mirroring in some cases — use DisplayPort for full extended desktop support. USB-C laptop owners: Perfect for MacBook Air, Surface Laptop, or Dell XPS 13 users who need a single-cable docking solution for office or home use. The 60W PD is sufficient for most 13-14 inch ultrabooks, but may not charge larger 15-16 inch models at full speed. * Budget-conscious professionals: If you don't need Thunderbolt speeds or 4K@60Hz, this dock offers excellent value. It's a reliable way to add Ethernet, extra USB ports, and a monitor to any compatible USB-C laptop without spending a premium.
