Notebook Easel
The notebook easel is the platform on which the LifeBook rests
when connected to the Docking Cradle.
REAR PANEL COMPONENTS
The following is a brief description of the Docking Cradle’s rear
components.
(Figure 2)
USB Ports
There are four USB 2.0 ports on the Docking Cradle, one on the
right side and three on the rear. USB 2.0 ports let you connect
any USB 2.0 device for up to 480 Mbps transfer rate. USB 2.0 is
backward-compatible with USB 1.1.
External Video Connector
The external video connector allows you to connect an external
video device such as a monitor or projector.
Stability Stand
The stability stand consists of a bracket which can be pulled
away from the Docking Cradle to provide additional stability.
When not in use, it can be pushed back into the Docking
Cradle.
LAN (RJ-45) Jack
The LAN port lets you connect an RJ-45 cable. Note that when
your notebook is connected to the Docking Cradle, the docking
connector on the system (to which you would ordinarily attache
the LAN/monitor adapter cable) is not accessible; the Docking
Cradle LAN port is the only one that can be used when attached
to the system.
DC Power Jack
The DC power jack allows you to plug in the AC adapter or the
optional Auto/Airline adapter to power your notebook.
