Display (Monitor) Output
The 15-pin D-sub monitor port supports a standard VGA-compatible device such as a monitor
or projector to allow viewing on a larger external display.
LAN Port
The RJ-45 LAN port with eight pins is larger than the RJ-11 modem port and supports a
standard Ethernet cable for connection to a local network. The built-in connector allows
convenient use without additional adapters.
2.0
USB Port (2.0/1.1)
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such
as keyboards, pointing devices, cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected in
a series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec (USB 2.0). USB allows many devices
to run simultaneously on a single computer, with some peripherals acting as additional plug-in sites or
hubs. USB supports hot-swapping of devices so that most peripherals can be connected or disconnected
without restarting the computer.
Rear Side

Serial Port (on selected models)
The 9-pin D-sub serial port supports native serial devices such as a serial drawing
tablets, serial mouse, or serial modem. Serial devices have been slowly replaced by
USB devices.
