Connecting an i.LINK™ device
Your VAIO computer includes a 4-pin i.LINK™ port on the front of the system and a 6-pin i.LINK™ port on
the back of the system. Use these connectors to connect an i.LINK™ device such as a digital video camera
recorder or to link up two VAIO computers so you can copy, delete or edit files.
The 6-pin i.LINK™ connector on the back of your system can:


Supply power from the computer to the connected device if the device has a 6-pin connector, and


Supply 10V to 12V.


The 4-pin i.LINK™ port cannot supply power to a connected device.


The i.LINK™ connectors supports transfer rates up to 400 Mbps; however, the actual transfer rate depends
on the transfer rate of the external device.
The i.LINK™ features available may vary depending on the software applications you use. Refer to the
documentation that came with your software for more information.

numbers: VMC-IL4415, VMC-IL4435, VMC-IL4615, VMC-IL4635, VMC-IL6615, and VMC-IL6635. Sony computer
