Connecting the Duo Dock to the end

of an Ethernet network

Connecting the Duo Dock to the end of a network will not

interrupt communication among network users. You do not need

to shut down any computers or notify users before adding the

dock to the network.

1. Plug the short cable extending from an Apple Ethernet

adapter into the Ethernet port on the dock.

The Ethernet port is at the center of the connector panel on

the back of the dock.

2. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the adapter to the

network as shown.

Connecting the Duo Dock directly to your printer

The Ethernet port is used most often to connect the dock to a

network. However, if you are using the dock and PowerBook Duo

as a stand-alone computer, you can use this port to create a direct,

high-speed connection to a printer that also has an Ethernet port

(this creates a small Ethernet network consisting of the

workstation and printer).

1. Plug the short cable extending from an Apple Ethernet

adapter into the Ethernet port on the dock.

The Ethernet port is at the center of the connector panel on

the back of the dock.

2. Plug an Ethernet connector into the Ethernet port on

your printer.

3. Connect the two Ethernet adapters with an Ethernet

cable, as shown.
