IEEE13´4 Port (on selected models)
IEEE1394 is a high speed serial bus like SCSI but has simple connections and hot-
plugging capabilities like USB. The interface IEEE1394 has a bandwidth of 100-400
Mbits/sec and can handle up to 63 units on the same bus. IEEE1394 is also used in
high-end digital equipment and should be marked “DV” for Digital Video port.
ExpressCard Slot
One 26pin Express card slot is available to support one ExpressCard/34mm or one
ExpressCard/54mm expansion card. This new interface is faster by using a serial bus
supporting USB 2.0 and PCI Express instead of the slower parallel bus used in the PC
card slot. (Not compatible with previous PCMCIA cards.)
2.0
E-SATA or USB (2.0/1.1) Port (depending on model)
External SATA or eSATA allows external connection of Serial-ATA devices originally
designed for use inside the computer. It is up to six times faster than existing USB 2.0 and
1394 for external storage solutions and is also hot pluggable.
The USB (Universal Serial Bus) port is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as
keyboards, pointing devices, cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected in a
series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec (USB 2.0).
