Kensington H1000 USB-C Headset
The Kensington H1000 USB-C headset is built for professionals who spend long hours on calls. It connects directly to Windows, macOS or Chrome OS devices and works with popular meeting platforms such as Microsoft Teams and Zoom. The lightweight on-ear design features an adjustable leatherette headband and soft earpads for a secure, comfortable fit during extended sessions. A 270° rotating boom lets you wear the microphone on either side.
Thermals noise and power draw
Passive USB-C power means the headset draws only the energy it needs from the host device, so there is no separate charger or battery to manage. The on-ear cups rest lightly on the ears without clamping force that builds heat over time. The directional noise-canceling microphone suppresses keyboard clicks and nearby voices while sidetone lets you hear your own voice naturally. No active cooling or fan noise is present.
Build fit and freedoms
A 6 ft tangle-free nylon braided cable gives you room to stand and stretch without unplugging. In-line controls put volume, play/pause, mute and a busy-light toggle at your fingertips, while LED indicators on the microphone and inline remote show mute and busy status at a glance. The single USB-C connection leaves other ports free for peripherals or power. The headset is part of Kensington's Professional Video Conferencing ecosystem for a consistent experience across devices.

Questions about this item
How do I install the Kensington H1000 headset and which step do people often miss?
Plug the USB-C connector into your computer; the headset is recognised automatically on Windows, macOS and Chrome OS. The step users miss is positioning the 270° rotating microphone on the correct side and close to the mouth so the directional noise-canceling circuit can suppress keyboard clicks and nearby voices.
What maintenance or replacement will the H1000 need over time?
The leatherette headband and earpads can wear with daily use; they are not user-replaceable, so plan to replace the entire headset when the pads lose comfort or the 6 ft nylon-braided cable shows fraying.
What limit appears first during long calls on the H1000?
The on-ear design presses against the ears, so physical comfort typically becomes the limiting factor before the 40 mm drivers or the noise-canceling microphone show any performance drop.
