Using the Infrared Port The infrared port on the rear panel of the computer provides cable-free communication between the computer and another infrared-equipped device such as a printer or desktop computer. This point-to-point communication is enabled by an invisible beam of infrared light. The infrared port supports both low speed connections up to 115 kilobits per second (Kbps) and high speed connections up to 4 megabits per second (Mbps). The infrared port is IrDA-compliant and can be used with any other infrared-equipped device that is also IrDA-compliant. Operating system support for infrared communication is currently available with Microsoft Windows 95. However, Microsoft Windows NT Workstation support for infrared communication is not yet available. If you are running Windows NT, the computer is fully equipped to take advantage of infrared communication as soon as Windows NT support is made available. Wireless Infrared Communication NOTE: Compaq infrared computers are IrDA-compliant (4 Mbps standard). Infrared performance may vary depending on performance of infrared peripherals, distance between infrared devices, and applications used. 7-6 Connecting External Desktop Equipment
