Please google for things like "T30 ultraport" or "A30p ultraport" and you will find a lot of pages indicating that there were models with ultraport. Either they all had wrong information or there were models including it. It is true that the mentioning on the locations overview page is a mistake and should obviously be UltraBay, but still you can see the ultraport in the movie picture. However, by writing "the time of the T30" i also refer to the models like the A30p and i think that there is very much stronger indication that there were A30p models with UltraPort.

Yes, the UltraPort was available throughout all models of the T2x series. And yes, it was rarely found in models from the T30 series. But the location overview movie at the IBM web page shows the UltraPort and it mentions it on the page. So this seems to indicate that some T30 models still came with it.

I have seen a lot of T30 models, and not one had the UltraPort. If the IBM webpage shows it does, that is simply a mistake. It certainly would not be the first time.

I double checked it in the T30 HMM, and it makes no mention of the Ultraport. ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles_pdf/92p1840.pdf

I know because I had the UltraPort Camera II, and could no longer use it with my T30, so I gave it away. My wife has an X22 which does have the connector.

Doing some searches on the Internet and the IBM support pages, these should be all the machines with the UltraPort connector:

A20m A20p A21e A21m A21p A22e A22m A22p T20 T21 T22 T23 X21 X22 X23 X24

I know the T30 and R31 no longer have the connector.
