88 Exploring the Features on your Device Using a docking station Using a docking station (Sold separately.) The docking connector, located on the side of your tablet device, is used to attach your device to a docking station (not shipped with your system). You can leave network cables and external devices (such as an external keyboard, mouse, speakers, and USB devices) connected to the docking station when the tablet is not connected to it. This allows you to quickly connect your tablet to the docking station and have immediate access to all of your network resources and external devices. This eliminates the time-consuming process of connecting each external device individually, and saves wear and tear on the ports and cables.
