A port replicator is available as an option (CF-VEB272A). This device eliminates the
hassles of having you connect/disconnect the various cables when carrying your com-
puter around and allows a variety of peripherals to be connected including a head-
phone or microphone, etc.
The port replicator connects to the expansion bus connector on the back of your com-
puter.
For more detailed information, refer to the Operating Instructions of the port replicator.

Hot/Warm Docking and Hot/Warm Undocking are not possible with the port
