Port Replicator

Your Fujitsu LifeBook notebook comes with a Port Replicator. The Port Replicator extends the functionality of your notebook by providing ports to connect PS/2 devices, a LAN (RJ-45) cable, a USB device, an external monitor, a parallel device, a serial device, and an external floppy disk drive. The Port Replicator connects to the rear panel of your notebook. (See Device Ports on page 55 for more information)
