Connecting your Duo Dock to Ethernet

Before you can use your dock on a network, you must connect it

to the Ether

net network by connecting an Ether

net adapter and

cable to the Ether

net port on the dock. Af

ter connecting the

dock, you must put the P

owerBook Duo in the dock and mak

e

sure your P

owerBook can communicate with the network.

With the appropriate Apple Ether

net adapter (or other

compatible adapter), you can connect your Duo Dock to an

existing Ether

net network using thin coax, 10BA

SE-T twisted pair

,

thick coax, or other standard cables. (See an Apple-authorized

dealer for more infor

mation on Apple Ether

net adapters for your

Duo Dock.)
