Overview
The UC-2000 and UC-2000L USB Docking Stations are port replicators
that allow you to connect standard desktop peripherals (keyboard, mouse,
modem, printer, scanner, etc.), to virtually any notebook by means of a
single USB connection.
In addition to ports for two USB peripheral devices, the UC-2000 and
UC-2000L incorporate traditional serial, parallel, mouse, and keyboard
ports so you don’t have to lose any of your current peripheral investments.
The UC-2000L also contains an ethernet port for convenient networking.
By combining the functionality of using full-sized desktop PC peripherals
with the convenience of using a portable notebook as your primary
computer, your notebook can now be your office PC.
Just connect all your peripherals to the UC-2000 or UC-2000L; make one
simple USB cable connection to your notebook; and you have all the
convenience of a desktop computer at your fingertips. When it’s time to
get on the road, simply unplug the one USB cable and you are ready to
travel.
To accomodate all of your peripheral connectivity needs, you can daisy
chain USB hubs and USB devices to the UC-2000 or UC-2000L. Easy
USB plug and play installation makes adding new USB hardware a breeze.
Complex installation routines are eliminated, IRQ conflicts are a thing of
the past, and there is no more hassle trying to keep things synchronized
between your notebook and office PCs.
