From the Manufacturer
Is your new laptop missing the old serial and parallel ports? Our mini port replicator combines a USB serial adapter, USB parallel printer adapter, and 2-port USB hub into one compact accessory.
Unlike port replicators made by other vendors, the Keyspan Mini Port Replicator features a bus-powered design. Since it draws power from the USB connection, it is not necessary to carry a power adapter or to be near a power outlet to use the replicator.
