The desktop cradle
The desktop cradle for the Be.U Mobile is a power charger and
communication base that provides a method to charge the main battery.
The cradle has eight connectors:
• 1 power connector (1)
• 1 Ethernet connector (2)
• 1 serial connector (3)
• 4 USB host connectors (4)
• 1 USB client connector (5)
The power connector allows you to connect the external power supply to
the cradle.
The Ethernet connector allows you to connect to the Internet and to a
local network.
The Serial connector allows you to connect other external devices like
card readers to the Be.U Mobile.
The 4 USB host connectors allow the Be.U Mobile to accept input from
USB devices. You can use a host connector to attach a keyboard or a
mouse to the Be.U Mobile.
The USB client connector allows you to connect the Be.U Mobile to a
USB port on a computer. The computer then becomes the host for the
Be.U Mobile. The connection allows the ActiveSync on the computer to
transfer the data between the computer and the Be.U Mobile. See the
Be.U Mobile Technical Reference.
