Infrared Connection Overview
Infrared-equipped computers are IrDA-compliant (4 Mbps
standard). Infrared performance may vary depending on
performance of infrared peripherals, distance between infrared
devices, and applications used.
The infrared port allows wireless communication between your
computer or a desktop expansion base and other infrared-equipped
devices. Operating system support for infrared communication is
currently available with Microsoft Windows 95. However,
Microsoft Windows NT Workstation support for infrared
communication is not available.
The infrared port produces an invisible beam of infrared light to
communicate with another infrared-equipped device.
