Using the i.LINK
port
®
The i.LINK
port on the left side of the computer provides an
extremely fast data transfer rate.
®
In addition to high speed, the i.LINK
port also supports
isochronous data transfer (the delivery of data at a guaranteed
rate). This makes it ideal for devices that transfer high levels
of data in real-time, such as video devices.
®
As with USB ports, the i.LINK
port supports both Plug-and-
Play (automatic configuration) and hot swapping (the ability
to connect and disconnect devices while the computer is on).
