Port Replicator
An optional Port Replicator is available from
Fujitsu to support your LifeBook P Series
notebook. The Port Replicator extends the
functionality of your Notebook by providing ports
to connect USB devices, an external monitor,
external speaker, or a LAN device. The Port
Replicator connects to the bottom of your
notebook.

Rear Panel Components

Following is a brief description of the optional
Port Replicator's rear panel components.
External Monitor Port
The external monitor port allows you to connect
an external monitor. Note that if a Port Replicator
is attached, you must use the external monitor
port on the Port Replicator. (Figure 4-6)
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.

DC Power Jack
The DC power jack allows you to plug in the AC
adapter to power your Notebook and charge the
internal Lithium ion battery.
USB 2.0 Ports
The two USB 2.0 ports allow you to connect USB
devices such as game pads, pointing devices,
and keyboards. USB 2.0 is downward-compatible
with USB 1.1 devices, so older USB devices will
work with these ports. USB 2.0 is a much faster
design, running 40 times faster than USB 1.1.
Docking Port
The docking port connects the Port Replicator
to your Notebook. (Figure 4-6)
Port Replicator Release Latch
