USB Equipment
The two USB pass-through connectors on the desktop expansion
base function only when a USB-equipped computer is docked.
The connectors then function as powered hubs and can support
any USB device or combination of USB devices that is supported
by the computer.
NOTE:
When used with an Armada 7800 computer that has a USB
driver loaded, an external keyboard connected to a USB connector
on the computer or on the expansion base will not support hotkey
commands, initiating QuickLock/QuickBlank with
Ctrl+Alt+L,
or
exiting QuickLock/QuickBlank with a power-on password.
Connecting a Modem
The modem connector on the desktop expansion base is a pass-
through connector. It functions only when a modem-equipped
computer is docked. It supports the same modem speeds and
features as the modem in the computer.

Latin America, Japan, or Hong Kong, the modem connector is
