Keyspan Mini Port Replicator

The Ports You Need

Many modern desktop and laptop PCs no longer offer serial and parallel ports -- yet serial and parallel devices are commonly used in many industries. No ports?... No problem! This mini port replicator combines a USB serial adapter, USB parallel printer adapter and 2-port USB hub into one compact accessory.

Works with All PCs

The port replicators made by Toshiba, Lenovo and many other laptop manufacturers only work with their specific brand of laptop. Our mini port replicator works with all brands of PCs.

Use Anywhere

Other port replicators are designed to be left on your desk and used when you return to your home/office. They must be plugged into an electrical outlet in order to work. Unlike these competitors, the Mini Port Replicator draws power from the USB connection. It is not necessary to carry a power adapter or to be at a power outlet to use the replicator. As a result, it is a truly mobile solution. Use it anywhere!

Mini Port Replicator | Compatibility

Works with all brands of computers

Serial port works with all RS-232 serial devices including GPS units, cell phones, POS devices, scientific/medical instrumentation, and industrial process control devices. Serial driver is a Microsoft signed driver (i.e. has been certified by Microsoft WHQL testing).

Parallel port works with parallel printers only. Under Windows or Mac OS X, this port works with hundreds of parallel inkjet, laser, photo and label printers. Under Mac OS 8.6 or 9.x, this port is compatible with Epson Stylus printers only. This port may not be used with parallel storage devices.

USB ports work as standard bus-powered USB hub ports.
