I have an HP ZR2440w monitor.

I have an HP Folio laptop.

I have an HP 3005pr port replicator.

 

I want to use the monitor's built-in speakers.

Question 1) What cable do I need to connect the port replicator to the monitor to use the monitor's built-in speakers?

 

Question 2) Does the monitor have a built-in microphone?

Question 2b) If yes, what cable do I need to connect the port replicator to the monitor to use the monitor's built-in microphone?

 

Thanks!

I understand you have some questions connecting the zr2440w monitor to the Hp 3005pr port replicator.

 

The back of the replicator should look something like this.

Question 1) What cable do I need to connect the port replicator to the monitor to use the monitor's built-in speakers?

The green headphone jack is how you would connect it to a set of external speakers.  If the monitor has its own speakers, it should have a port to match it.  This is a standard 3.5mm audio jack, so any standard 3.5mm speaker cable should work.  I will note that this monitor didn't list any audio input.  Monitors that have speakers usually have an analog audio input jack. 

 

Question 2) Does the monitor have a built-in microphone?

This guide lists all the features of this monitor starting on page 2.  It doesn't appear to have a microphone.  You could still connect an external microphone to the port replicator's microphone jack. 

 

 

Let me know if this answered your questions.
