Knowing the Parts

2.0

USB Port (2.0/1.1)

The Universal Serial Bus 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 peripherals such as USB keyboards and some

newer monitors 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.

ExpressCard Slot

One 26pin Express card slot is available to support one ExpressCard/34mm or one

ExpressCard/54mm expansion card. This new interface is faster by using a serial bus

supporting USB 2.0 and PCI Express instead of the slower parallel bus used in the PC

card slot. (Not compatible with previous PCMCIA cards.)

IEEE1394 Port

IEEE1394 is a high speed serial bus like SCSI but has simple connections and hot-

plugging capabilities like USB. The interface IEEE1394 has a bandwidth of 100-400

Mbits/sec and can handle up to 63 units on the same bus. IEEE1394 is also used in

high-end digital equipment and should be marked “DV” for Digital Video port.

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.

TV-Out Port

The TV-Out port is an S-Video connector that allows routing the Notebook

PC’s display to a television or video projection device. You can choose between

simultaneously or single display. Use an S-Video cable (not provided) for high

quality displays or use the provided RCA to S-Video adapter for standard video

devices. This port supports both NTSC and PAL formats.
