Product Summary |
---|
The UltraBoard Numeric keypad from Bakker Elkhuizen is designed as a matching accessory to the UltraBoard 950 compact keyboard. It features the same slim low profile and crisp scissor-switch keys and has convenient Hotkeys for quickly accessing Email, Print Screen, Scroll Lock and Pause/Break functions. This 21-key numeric keypad can plug directly into any standard USB port, including those on the UltraBoard 950 keyboard. |
Ergonomic Benefits |
---|
Reduces Risk of Shoulder, Elbow and Wrist Strain - Regular size keyboards with integrated numeric keypads on the right make reaching for the mouse on the right-hand side an ergonomic risk factor. The further the reach for the mouse (from the dominant hand home row, over the navigation keys, over the numeric keypad), the greater the risk of injuries to the arm and shoulder due to overreaching. When paired with a compact keyboard (no built-in numeric keypad) the UltraBoard 955 Numeric Keypad eliminates this potential risk factor by providing a repositionable discrete numeric keypad that can be placed for optimum ergonomics when needed and moved out of the way at other times.

Features |

- Concave Keycaps: The keycaps have a slightly concave surface that improves tactility by maximizing finger pad contact on the keycaps and guiding the fingers to the key centers.
- Low Profile: With a maximum height of just 0.75", the potential for wrist extension is minimized.
- High-Quality Scissor-Switch Keyswitches: High-quality scissor-switch keyswitches offer the low-travel feel of a laptop keyboard.
- High Contrast Legending: The light-coloured matte keycaps and contrasting dark legends reduce reflection and increase visibility.
- Hotkeys: The UltraBoard 955 Numeric Keypad includes convenient Hotkeys for quickly accessing Email, Print Screen, Scroll Lock and Pause/Break functions.

Usage Tips |
---|
- If you mouse with your right hand consider learning to use your numeric keypad with your left hand. This will minimize any reaching for both arms, keeping your hands and elbows as close to your body as possible.
- If you can't retrain yourself to use the numeric with your left hand then consider a left-hand mouse to reduce any overreaching on the right side.
- Position the keypad as close to the keyboard as possible, whether you use it on the left or the right side. This will reduce the amount of outward rotation of the shoulder that will be required and will keep the keypad with the Comfort Zone. Learn More About the Comfort Zone.
- If using the keypad on the same side as your mouse make a point of setting it out of the way when possible and bringing the mouse in as close as possible, also to keep the mouse in the Comfort Zone whenever possible.
- Try to keep the keypad at the same height as the keyboard and mouse. It is not advisable to place it up and on the desk when using a keyboard tray as this requires continuous reaching and stretching. Modifying the workspace to make room for all devices on a single level should be a primary consideration in this scenario.
