Once all device drivers are installed, the LED status
indicator lights glow and you can connect devices to the
port replicator. The LED lights display as follows:
• Hub Link light blinks green.
• Serial light glows green.
• Each PS/2 light flashes green when a device is first
connected or there is activity on the port.
• USB lights glow green when a USB device is attached.
(Model PA095 only)
• Tx/Rx light flashes green when data is transmitted to or
from the network.
• 100M light glows green when connected to a 100 Mbps
network.
NOTES: The Ethernet port is compatible with 100 Mbps
networks. however, the actual throughput is 10 Mbps
maximum when connected to a USB v1.1 port due to the
bandwidth limitation. The throughput may decrease as
additional devices are attached to the port replicator
regardless of whether the port replicator is attached
to a USB 1.1 or 2.0 port.

The port replicator supports hot swapping of the
network cable.
Connecting Devices to the Port
Replicator
When connecting new devices to the port replicator, you
may need to install additional software drivers. Consider the
following guidelines:
• The device drivers install automatically.
• When connecting a new device to the port replicator, you
must run the Setup or Install program for that device.
• When connecting a device to the port replicator, do not
force the cable connector into the port on the port
replicator, to avoid possible damage. If the cable
connector does not attach smoothly, turn the connector
over and try attaching it again.

or special features may not function properly. For
more information on using a device, refer to the

Product Limitations
General
The port replicator splits a single connection among a
variety of devices and connections. Some devices, which
use large amounts of bandwidth, such as printers and
digital cameras, can consume all available resources and
may interfere with the performance of other devices.
You may experience some temporary halting of some
devices when a high data transfer is occurring. For example,
your mouse may respond slowly while a graphic print job is
printing or while you are experiencing heavy network traffic.
We recommend the following guidelines:
• Do not transfer data to or from multiple high-speed
devices at the same time, such as a digital camera and
scanner.
• If speed degradation does occur, close other programs
that use a USB device to improve device performance.
Parallel Port
The parallel port is only compatible with printers and only
supports enhanced bi-directional printer features, such as
returning printer status. For best results, you should
connect high bandwidth external devices, which have a
parallel connection, such as a Zip®drive, directly to your
computer.
PS/2 Mouse and Keyboard
On the port replicator, a PS/2 mouse emulates a USB
mouse and a PS/2 keyboard emulates a USB keyboard.
This may result in a loss of enhanced features, such as
screen scrolling or programmable hot key features.
