Power On/Off Button
The Power On/Off button on the port repli-
cator performs the same functions as the
system Suspend/Resume button. The Power
On/Off button allows you to suspend note-
book activity without powering off, resume
your notebook from standby mode, and
power on your system when it has been shut
down from the Windows operating system.
USB 2.0 Ports
The four USB 2.0 ports allow you to connect
USB devices such as game pads, pointing
devices, and keyboards. USB 2.0 is down-
ward-compatible with USB 1.1 devices, so
older USB devices will work with these ports.
USB 2.0 runs 40X faster than USB 1.1.
eSATA
The external SATA (eSATA) port is used for
connecting an eSATA device. eSATA devices
are used for high-speed data transfer between
your computer and the external device.
LAN (RJ-45) Jack
The LAN jack allows you to connect a LAN to
the port replicator. Note that when the system
is attached to the port replicator, the LAN Jack
on the port replicator should be used, not the
one on the system.

The external Digital Video Interface (DVI)
port allows you to connect an external digital
flat-panel monitor or projector, providing a
pure digital video signal for digital monitors.
Docking Port
The docking port connects the port replicator
to your notebook.
External Video Port
The external video port allows you to connect
an external monitor or display. Note that if a
port replicator is attached, you must use the
Front Panel Components
Security Lock Slot
The security lock slot allows you to attach an
optional physical lock down device.
DC Power Jack
The DC power jack allows you to plug in the
AC adapter to power the notebook and charge
the internal Lithium ion battery.
Do not hold the system by
the port replicator. The port
replicator and/or the system
could be damaged if the port
replicator is used as a handle.
