ThinkPad port replicator and docking station

If your computer has a docking connector, you can attach it to a ThinkPad port replicator or a docking
station. Your computer supports ThinkPad Port Replicator Series 3, ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3, and
ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3.
When the computer is attached to the ThinkPad port replicator or the docking station, never pick up the
assembly by taking hold of the computer alone. Always hold the whole assembly.
For more details about the ThinkPad Port Replicator Series 3, the ThinkPad Mini Dock Series 3, and the
ThinkPad Mini Dock Plus Series 3, refer to the following:
