Mic There is one microphone connector on the front of the computer. Connect a microphone to this connector to record sounds onto the hard disk or to use speech-recognition software. Auxiliary-device (pointing-device) connector There is one auxiliary-device connector on the rear of the computer. Use this connector to connect a mouse or other pointing device. The following illustration shows an auxiliary-device connector. 6 4 2 5 3 1 Ethernet (RJ-45) connector There is one Ethernet connector on the rear of the computer. Use this connector to connect the computer to a 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps network. The following illustration shows an Ethernet connector. Activity LED (green) Link LED (green) 8 1 Connect a Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable to this connector. The 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T Fast Ethernet standards require Category 5 or higher cabling. The Ethernet connector has one LED that indicates Ethernet-link status. When this LED is lit, it indicates that there is an active connection on the Ethernet port. Activity between the computer and the network is indicated by the Ethernet transmit/receive activity LEDs on the front and rear of the computer (see "Controls, LEDs, and connectors" on page 9). IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connector (some models) There is one 4-pin Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1394 (FireWire) connector on the front of the computer and one 6-pin IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connector on the rear of the computer. Use these connectors to connect IEEE 1394 (FireWire) devices. The following illustrations show the IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connectors. 4-pin IEEE 1394 (FireWire) connector (front) 4 3 21 Chapter 4.
