Kensington ® Lock Port
The Kensington ® lock port allows the Notebook PC to be secured using Kensington ® com-
patible Notebook PC security products. These security products usually include a metal
cable and lock that prevent the Notebook PC to be removed from a fixed object. Some
security products may also include a motion detector to sound an alarm when moved.
Display (Monitor) Output
The 15-pin D-sub monitor port supports a standard VGA-compatible device such as a
monitor or projector to allow viewing on a larger external display.
2.0
USB Port (2.0/1.1)
The Universal Serial Bus is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as
keyboards, pointing devices, cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners con-
nected 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 key-
boards and some newer monitors acting as additional plug-in sites or hubs. USB supports hot-swapping
of devices so that most peripherals can be connected or disconnected without restarting the computer.
Microphone Input Jack (Mic In)
The mono microphone jack (1/8 inch) can be used to connect an external microphone or
output signals from audio devices. Using this jack automatically disables the built-in micro-
phone. Use this feature for video conferencing, voice narrations, or simple audio recordings.
LAN Port
The RJ-45 LAN port with eight pins is larger than the RJ-11 modem port and sup-
ports a standard Ethernet cable for connection to a local network. The built-in con-
nector allows convenient use without additional adapters.
Cooling Fan
The cooling fan turns ON or OFF depending on temperature threshold settings.
