ThinkPad Port Replicator for Thinkkpad T60 with DVI port

[etherburn]

is there a Thinkpad Port Replicator with a DVI connector in the back for the thinkpad T60 series?

the basic port replicator does not have DVI - you will need to get the mini dock - check document MIGR-61297 on the lenovo site for details

From the Lenovo site:


• The ThinkPad Advanced Mini Dock is ideal for notebook users who need quick and easy access to peripherals but do not require full desktop expansion capability. It provides pass-through (replication) of ThinkPad notebook ports, including Gigabit ethernet (RJ-45), modem (RJ-11), four USB 2.0 ports, one PS/2 port for keyboard or mouse, serial and parallel, microphone in, headphone out, S/F/DIF (digital audio), DVI-D, VGA. Also features an integrated key lock and optional cable lock slot to secure your ThinkPad notebook and your ThinkPad Advanced Mini Dock. Compatible with ThinkPad R60 notebooks. Does not support earlier ThinkPad R series notebooks.

The Thinkpad mini dock, item # 287810U, is perfect because it provides all the connections and an additional AC adapter for the dock.

If you need powered USB ports or the need for a ultrabay adapter in the dock itself, check out the Thinkpad Dock II, item # 287710U. I've got one of these at the office and it's probably over kill for my needs. Comes with a special adapter for the dock (a normal AC adapter will not work with it) that provides additional power.

Both of these have a DVI connector and will support widescreen LCD's, such as, the Dell 24 widescreen LCD that I'm using. Dock it, boot it, and automatically adjusts for the 1920 X 1200 resolution.

Those are not the intended docks for the T60, i've personally never checked whether they fit but I had thought the docking connector was repositioned; I think the new docks have a much better design anyway, check the document I gave or MIGR-61232 for the dock (i don't like to give part numbers as they differ by region)

Right you are. The model number is 250510W, Thinkpad Essential Port Replicator. And it does not come with the AC adapter.

I think you are getting confused - the essential port replicator does not have a DVI port which was the originally query so the advanced mini dock is required for this which does ship with an additional ac adapter; if we must use part numbers then the part is 250410U
