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 while the Notebook PC is turned ON.

Optical Drive Eject and Emergency Eject

The optical drive eject is an electronic eject button for opening the tray. You can also eject the optical

drive tray through any CD/VCD/DVD software player or by right clicking the optical drive in Win-

dows™ “My Computer.” The emergency eject is used to eject the optical drive tray in case the elec-

tronic eject does not work. Do not use the emergency eject in place of the electronic eject.

Flash Memory Card Reader

The built-in memory card reader can read the following flash memory cards: Secure Digital (SD),

Multi-Media Card (MMC), Memory Stick (MS), Memory Stick Select (MS Select), Memory Stick

Duo (with MS adapter), Memory Stick Pro, and Memory Stick Pro Duo (with MS Pro adapter).

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.
