Port Replicator
An optional Port Replicator is available from Fujitsu to
support your LifeBook T4200 Series Tablet PC. The Port
Replicator extends the functionality of your Tablet PC
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 Tablet PC. See
“Device Ports” on page53.

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 Repl icato r. (Figure 4-11)
External DVI Port
The external Digital Video Interface (DVI) port allows
you to connect an external digital flat-panel monitor or
projector. This provides a pure digital video signal for
digital monitors.
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 jac k allows you t o plug in the AC adapter
to power your Tablet PC and charge the internal
Lithium ion battery.
USB 2.0 Ports
The four 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.
Line Out Jack
The line out jack is used for connecting an external
speaker. Note that line out does not provide power, so
the speaker must be externally powered.
