Connection out of Dover or Ostend (2-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ro-ro

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'connection out' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'of dover or ostend' is the wordplay.
'of' indicates a hidden word.
'RO-RO' is hidden within 'dover or ostend'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for ro-ro that I've seen before include "Transport for vehicles with drivers" , "Class of ferry/cargo ship" , "Type of ferry transport for vehicles" , "Kind of ferry" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
