USB Port (2.0)
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.
