Right Side
Refer to the diagram below to identify the components on the right side of the Notebook PC.
PC Card (PCMCIA) Socket
One PCMCIA 2.1 compliant socket is available to support one type I/II PC card. The socket supports
32-bit CardBus. This allows accommodation of Notebook PC expansion options such as memory cards,
ISDN, SCSI, Smart Cards, and wireless network adapters.
1394 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.

LAN Port
The RJ-45 LAN port supports an RJ-45 Ethernet cable. The internal LAN supports 10Base-T or 100Base-
TX standard or duplex networks. The built-in connector allows convenient use without a dongle.
2.0 USB Ports (1.1 & 2.0)
Universal Serial Bus (USB) supports many USB compatible devices such as keyboards, pointing de-
vices, video cameras, modems, hard disk drives, printers, monitors, 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 simulta-
neously 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 peripherals can
be connected or disconnected without restarting the computer.
Modem Port
The RJ-11 telephone port supports an RJ-11 telephone cable. The internal modem supports up to 56K
V.90 transfers. The built-in connector allows convenient use without a dongle.
IMPORTANT! The built-in modem does not support the voltage used in digital phone
systems. Do not connect the modem port to a digital phone system or else damage
will occur to the Notebook PC.
