Connecting USB cables

Important
The built-in USB 2.0 hub provides only
low-speed connections if its USB in port
is connected to a USB 1.1 port on your
computer or on a USB hub.
Tips & Tricks
Use the USB 2.0 ports on the back of the
monitor for connecting USB devices you
want to keep connected most of the time,
such as a keyboard, a mouse, or a printer.
Use the USB 2.0 ports on the side of the
monitor for connecting USB devices that
are frequently disconnected, such as
camera interface cables, flash drives, and
USB hard drives.
Your monitor has a built-in, four-port USB 2.0 hub that lets you conveniently
connect USB devices. Because your computer case may be under your desk or
inside a cabinet, these monitor-mounted USB ports can be much easier to
access.
To use the monitor's USB ports, you must first connect the monitor to a USB port
on your computer. Because the USB hub uses power from the monitor, it does
not require its own power connection.
To connect USB cables:
Connect the included USB cable to the USB in ("B" type) port on the back
1
of your monitor, then connect the other end of the cable to a USB 2.0 port
on your computer.
USB ports USB in port

or back of the monitor.
