Manage your cables

You can use the integrated pass-through ports on the ARMSLIMDUO to conveniently

extend your computer connections to the base of the monitor mount and keep your

cables organized. To avoid cluttering your desk with cables, you can plug your devices

into the monitor mount instead of directly into your computer system.

• Do any of the following:

• Plug the green audio cable jack located at the back of the monitor mount into

the appropriate audio port on your computer. Plug the audio cable from your

headset or speakers into the green Audio port on the base of the mounting

arm.

• Plug the pink microphone cable located at the back of the monitor mount into

the microphone port on your computer. Plug the cable from your microphone

into the pink Microphone port on the base of the mounting arm.

• Plug the USB cables located at the back of the monitor mount into the USB

ports on your computer. Plug the cables from your USB devices into the USB

ports on the base of the mounting arm.
