Dell Pro Smartcard Keyboard KB-813, UK (QWERTY), Black | KB813-BK-UK

This wired USB keyboard is built for UK English users who demand both security and comfort. It features a full-size layout with a numeric keypad, rubber-dome keys and quiet typing - perfect for open-plan offices. The integrated ISO 7816 smartcard reader lets you log in with a swipe, eliminating passwords and reducing phishing risk. A 1.8 m cable gives you flexible placement without sacrificing a tidy desk.

The keyboard’s sturdy black chassis measures 446.5 mm wide, 151.5 mm deep and 40 mm high, weighing between 550 g and 670 g. It’s splash-resistant, so accidental coffee spills won’t ruin your work. LED indicators for Caps Lock, Num Lock and Scroll Lock keep you informed at a glance. The detachable wrist rest (included in some bundles) adds ergonomic support for long typing sessions.

Connectivity is simple - plug the USB-A connector into any Windows or Linux machine and the keyboard powers itself from the 5 V bus. No extra drivers are needed for basic functions, and the smartcard reader works with standard security software. The keyboard supports up to six simultaneous key presses, enough for most office tasks and data entry.

Designed for durability, the smartcard slot endures roughly 100 000 insertions, making it ideal for high-traffic environments. Operating temperatures range from -10 °C to 50 °C, and it tolerates humidity up to 90 % non-condensing, so it performs reliably in varied office climates.
