Lenovo ThinkPad 11e - Manual (Page 22)

DANGER
To avoid the risk of electrical shock, do not connect the telephone cable to the Ethernet connector.
You can only connect an Ethernet cable to this connector.
The Ethernet connector has two indicators that show the status of the network connection. When the left
indicator is solid green, it indicates that the computer connects to a LAN and a session with the network is
available. When the right indicator blinks in yellow, it indicates that data is being transmitted.
Note: If you attach the computer to a docking station or port replicator, use the Ethernet connector on the
docking station or port replicator to connect to a LAN, not the one on the computer.
