Exploring Your Computer’s Features
Using the i.LINK® port
5.375 x 8.375 ver 2.3
Using the i.LINK
®
port
The i.LINK
®
port on the left side of the computer provides an
extremely fast data transfer rate.
In addition to high speed, the i.LINK
®
port also supports
isochronous data transfer (the delivery of data at a guaranteed
rate.) This makes it ideal for devices that transfer high levels
of data in real-time, such as video devices.
As with USB ports, the i.LINK
®
port supports both Plug-and-
Play (automatic configuration) and hot swapping (the ability
to connect and disconnect devices while the computer is on).
Using PC Cards
Your computer comes with one PC Card slot and supports
two types of PC Cards:
❖ Type I cards—You can install one of these cards.
❖ Type II cards—You can install one of these cards.
TECHNICAL NOTE: For PCMCIA-compatible PC Cards, check
the package to make sure they conform to the PCMCIA 2.1
standard (or later). Other cards may work with your computer,
but are likely to be much more difficult to set up and use.
Inserting a PC Card
HINT: The operating system provides the Card and Socket
Services software for your PC Card. Even if your PC Card
comes with its own version of Card and Socket Services, you
should use the files included in the operating system.
