Technology Overview

USB stands for Universal Serial Bus. It’s a standard that has been
adopted by leading manufacturers within the computer industry to
define a new type of peripheral connection scheme. It is designed to
replace older parallel and serial ports, cables, and connectors with
something faster and easier to use. USB is:

?? Easier -- Windows 98 , 2000, Me or MAC OS will automatically

recognize newly installed devices.

?? Quicker -- You won’t have to reboot when installing.
?? Faster -- Top USB data speed is around 100 times faster than a

serial connection.

?? Greater Expandability -- Using USB hubs you can connect up to

127 devices to your computer.

?? Hot Swappable -- They just plug and go!
