PS/2-style keyboard, or PS/2-style Numeric Keypad to the system. With an optional
Y-adapter cable, you can connect up to two of these devices at the same time.

T

USB Ports — Each Universal Serial Bus (USB) port allows you to connect up to
127 USB-equipped peripheral devices (for example, printers, monitors, and
scanners) to your NEC Versa L320.

T

Serial Port — Use this port to connect a digital camera or other serial device.

T

NEC Cable PortBar™ Connector — Plug your optional NEC Cable PortBar (port
replicator) into this connector. You can connect many of your peripheral devices to
the NEC Cable PortBar instead of to the connectors on the back of the system.

T

VGA Port — Use this 15-pin port to attach an external monitor to your NEC Versa
L320.

T

S-Video Out Port — Use this port to connect a camcorder, VCR, or a game
machine for a connection that provides increased clarity and sharpness of imagery.

T

IEEE 1394 Ports — Use each port to daisy chain up to 63 IEEE 1394 devices to
your system. IEEE 1394 devices support Plug and Play connectivity for transfer
rates of up to 400 Mbps. The Windows NT operating system does not support the
IEEE 1394 ports.
