Connecting to a network
You can connect the computer to a network through the docking station. This requires an Ethernet cable
(purchased separately).
WARNING! To reduce the risk of electric shock, re, or damage to the equipment, do not plug a modem
cable or telephone cable into an RJ-45 (network) jack.
The dock supports the following computer functions over the network connection:
NOTE: Before using these functions, verify that your computer has the latest BIOS and network controller
driver installed. For instructions on updating these drivers, see your computer documentation.
● PXE boot
● MAC Address Pass Through
TIP: Your computer might support MAC Address Pass Through from the On, O, Sleep, or Hibernation
states, or only when the computer is on or in the Sleep state.
MAC Address Pass Through supports either UEFI PXE boot and Legacy PXE boot or only UEFI PXE boot.
● Wake on LAN (WOL)
TIP: Your computer might support WOL from the O, Sleep, or Hibernation states, or only when the
computer is on or in Sleep.
WLAN-LAN switching is supported only on select computers running the Windows 10 operating system.
1. Connect the docking station to the computer.
2. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 (network) jack on the docking station and connect
the other end to an RJ-45 wall jack or router.
NOTE: If the network cable contains noise suppression circuitry, which prevents interference from TV
and radio reception, orient the circuitry end of the cable toward the computer.
The RJ-45 port on the docking station does not support Intel® vPro™ Technology. To use Intel vPro
Technology, connect to a wireless network or use an RJ-45 port on your computer.
