Kensington Develops Dual Monitor Adapter Using DisplayLink USB Display Technology

By Niladri Sekhar Nath, TMCnet Contributing Editor

Kensington has introduced its Dual Monitor Adapter enriched with DisplayLink USB display technology. The new adapter lets desktop and notebook users quickly expand their visual workspace by adding an additional monitor via a simple USB connection.



 
The Kensington Dual Monitor Adapter works with any DVI or VGA regular or widescreen monitor. Up to six additional monitors can be connected to a single PC using multiple adapters. The adapter supports widescreen monitors up to 1440 x 900 pixels and standard monitors up to 1280x 1024 pixels in 32 bit-color. Users can opt for several display modes, including mirrored desktop, extended desktop and primary display.
 
"With DisplayLink's unique hardware and software, a second display is just a single USB connection away," said Frederic Frappereau, Global Product Marketing Manager at Kensington. "For $$119.99, both Mac and PC users can enjoy easier multitasking, increased productivity and a more pleasing visual environment without having to install complex video cards."
 
Based on DisplayLink's unique hardware and software, USB graphics adapters provide the simplicity of USB, to enable a simple external monitor connection -- allowing users to quickly and easily connect and enjoy an additional display on a PC or laptop.
 
A UGA is powered by the notebook PC and slips easily into a briefcase or carrying bag, for anytime/anywhere connection to projectors, docking stations or desktop displays. For online and brick and mortar retailers, the compact design and versatile applications of UGAs enable placement in multiple sales areas, including Monitors, Notebook PCs, Graphics Cards and USB Accessories.
 
"A USB graphics adapter (UGA) is the most affordable way to experience the plug and display simplicity of DisplayLink technology," said Dennis Crespo, DisplayLink executive vice president of marketing and business development. "Once people try the instant usability benefits of using multiple displays, they get hooked."
