The ThinkPad Ultrabay Plus Device Carrier enables the new input/output interface available in the Ultrabay Plus and provides connectivity to an industry standard USB 1.1 interface. It attaches in the right ThinkPad Ultrabay Plus. Other Ultrabay Plus options such as the ThinkPad Ultrabay Plus Cradle and the ThinkPad Ultrabay Plus Numeric Keypad, attach to and rest in the device carrier.

ThinkPad users can also opt for the 17-key, ThinkPad Ultrabay Plus Numeric Keypad for speedy data entry. It nests in the ThinkPad Ultrabay Plus Device Carrier and can remain in the system when the device carrier is closed for travel. The numeric keypad is also "hot swap - plug and play." It is designed to quickly type calculations into a spreadsheet or database program, and has a calculator feature that operates the Microsoft calculator.
