Port Replicator
An optional Port Replicator is available from Fujitsu to
support your LifeBook notebook. The Port Replicator
extends the functionality of your notebook by providing
ports to connect PS/2 devices, a parallel device, a serial
device, and an external floppy disk drive. The Port
Replicator connects to the bottom of your notebook. See
“Device Ports” on page 48.
REAR PANEL COMPONENTS
Following is a brief description of the optional Port
Replicator’s rear panel components.
LAN (RJ-45) Jack (LAN model only)
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.
External Monitor Port
The external monitor port allows you to connect an
external VGA or SVGA monitor. Note that if a Port
Replicator is attached, you must use the external
monitor port on the Port Replicator.
Parallel Port

(This is also sometimes referred to as an LPT port.)
Serial Port
The serial port allows you to connect serial (RS-232C)
devices. (This is also sometimes referred to as a COM
port.)
USB 2.0 Ports
The two Universal Serial Bus 2.0 ports allow you to
connect USB devices such as external game pads,
pointing devices, keyboards and/or speakers. USB 2.0
ports are backward-compatible to work with USB 1.1
devices.
