Modem Port
The RJ-11 modem port with two pins is smaller than the RJ-45 LAN port and supports a standard
telephone cable. The internal modem supports up to 56K V.90 transfers. The built-in connector allows
convenient use without additional adapters.
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.
LAN Port
The RJ-45 LAN port with eight pins is larger than the RJ-11 modem port and supports a standard
Ethernet cable for connection to a local network. The built-in connector allows convenient use without
additional adapters.
USB Port (2.0/1.1)
2.0
The Universal Serial Bus is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as keyboards, pointing
devices, 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
simultaneously 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.
