USB Port (2.0/1.1) (on selected models)

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.

E-SATA Port (on selected models)

External SATA or eSATA allows external connection of Serial-ATA devices originally

designed for use inside the computer. It is up to six times faster than existing USB 2.0,

& 1394 for external storage solutions and is also hot pluggable using shielded cables and

connectors up to two meters.

E-SATA

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.

HDMI Port

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an uncompressed all-digital audio/

video interface between any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player,

and A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television

(DTV). Supports standard, enhanced, or high-definition video, plus multi-channel

digital audio on a single cable. It transmits all ATSC HDTV standards and supports 8-

channel digital audio, with bandwidth to spare to accommodate future enhancements or requirements.

USB Power Port

The USB power port is a standard USB port but continues to supply 5 volt power when the Notebook PC

is turned OFF with the AC power adapter connected. This allows portable devices with USB charging

function to continue charging when the Notebook PC is turned OFF.
