Q: Can I connect to an additional screen via the additional USB‐C port on the back
of the SD4500 or the SD4600P dock?
A: No, you cannot connect to an additional screen. This is because that particular
USB‐C port does not support video. It does support a 15W (5V/3A) power
specification for USB‐C Power Delivery, so it is capable of data transfer and charging
a device, such as a smartphone or tablet with a USB‐C port.
Q: Can I use the USB‐A port on the front of the dock (SD4500 or the SD4600P) to
charge my smartphone or tablet?
A: Yes, the front USB‐A port supports standard battery charging capabilities of up to
2.1A and is capable of charging a smartphone or tablet. To achieve faster charging,
you should plug in your mobile device before plugging the dock into the PC.
Q: What is the maximum data speed of the USB 3.0 ports on your USB‐C docking
stations?
A: All the USB 3.0 ports on the Kensington USB‐C docks support 5Gbps data speed.
Q: Can I use another USB‐C cable (not from the original box) on this dock?
A: No, we can only guarantee the performance of the 18‐inch USB‐C cable that ships
with the dock. USB‐C cables vary greatly between different manufacturers. We
recommend that users contact Kensington Tech Support for replacement USB‐C
cables if needed at 1‐800‐535‐4242.
Q: Can I use adapters to connect to the primary USB‐C port on the SD4500 or
SD4600P or connect the HDMI/DP video cables to VGA/DVI ports?
A: No, you cannot use a USB‐C adapter to connect the docking station to a USB 3.0
host device, it can only be connected directly via a native USB‐C port. For video, to
connect the HDMI or DP cables to DVI or VGA ports, you will have to use active
adapters, which can be expensive. Passive adapters will not allow the video signals
to pass from the host device through the docking station and on to the monitor.
