Product Overview ________________________

Portsmith Express is a universal port replicator that easily connects multiple desktop peripherals to any laptop PC through a single USB connection. Portsmith Express features the ability to “hot dock” the peripherals. This means you can connect the peripherals to the desktop and use them without restarting the laptop PC.

With Portsmith Express, you can quickly hot dock the following items:

•Parallel Printer (DB-25 IEEE-1284)

•Serial Peripherals (such as a serial printer, modem, monitor, or palm device DB-9 RS-232, one at a time)

•Keyboard

•Mouse

•Up to Four USB Peripherals (at the same time)

•10Base-T Ethernet (Portsmith Express+ models only)

The SoftDockTM Utility included with Portsmith Express, offers several dock status, management, and troubleshooting features to simplify the overall use of the port replicator.
