i-tec USB 3.0 Travel Docking Station
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the i-tec docking station which thanks to its compact dimensions, low
weight and absence of the power adapter is a convenient companion for traveling users. The docking
station will allow you easy and faster connection of your favorite equipment to your notebook / tablet /
PC using a single USB cable.
The docking station is equipped with a HDMI and a VGA port for connecting of external monitor or
data projector. However, you can use only one of these ports at a time, either the HDMI or the
VGA port. If you connect monitors into both ports, the docking station will automatically give
preference to the HDMI monitor and the VGA monitor will be disconnected. You can use
modern plasma or LCD monitors or TV sets as the display equipment. The graphic chip, which makes
the heart of the docking station, supports the Full HD+ (2048 x 1152 pixels) resolution.
The Gigabit Ethernet port will allow you to connect internet modem / LAN Ethernet network for faster
data transfer.
You can use the USB 3.0 port for connecting a keyboard, a mouse, an external disk, a printer and
other peripheries or you can use if for connection of a USB HUB providing you with more free USB
ports. In this case we recommend using a USB HUB with external power supply.

CAUTION!
Before the installation on the USB 3.0 port make sure that you have the most recent drivers installed
for this port (for the USB 3.0 controller into notebook / tablet / PC). Products with the USB 3.0
SuperSpeed technology have been used since 2010; however, the drivers for the supported
equipment are still undergoing some fine tuning. Your notebook / tablet / PC needs to be equipped
with the USB 3.0 interface so that you can utilize the advantages of the fast USB 3.0 equipment. Its
problem free function is ensured by the chipset which needs to have the current drivers available.
Problems that you can encounter during the installation or use of our USB 3.0 equipment are very
often caused by the installed outdated drivers for the USB 3.0 controller or chipset of your notebook /
tablet / PC. Other problems can be caused by outdated firmware of the USB 3.0 port controller. Most
frequently it is one of the following manufacturers: Intel, Renesas (former NEC), Via (VLI), AS Media,
Fresco Logic, Etron.
You can find the most recent drivers for the i-tec products on our website www.i-tec-europe.eu in the
„Download" tab for the individual products. The „Problems with USB 3.0" tab includes a more detailed
description with links to the drivers and firmware for USB 3.0 controllers.
