FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

With USB, up to 127 devices can run simultaneously on one computer. USB permits 'hot plug-in.' No need to shut down, plug in, reboot and run set up to install peripherals. No need to go through the reverse process to unplug a device. Bottom line: USB transforms today's 'Plug-and-Pray' into true Plug-and-Play!

Q:What is a USB hub ?

A:A USB hub provides additional connections to the Universal Serial Bus. A hub's upstream port connects a hub to the host, usually a PC. Multiple downstream ports in a hub allows connection to another hub or device, such as a USB keyboard, camera or printer.

Q:What is a Liquid Crystal Display?

A:A Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) is an optical device that is commonly used to display ASCII characters and images on digital items such as watches, calculators, portable game consoles, etc. LCD is the technology used for displays in notebooks and other small computers. Like light-emitting diode and gas-plasma technologies, LCD allows displays to be much thinner than cathode ray tube (CRT) technology. LCD consumes much less power than LED and gas-display displays because it works on the principle of blocking light rather than emitting it.

Q:How are LCDs made?

A:LCDs are created from two glass plates separated from each other at a distance of a few microns. The plates are filled with liquid crystal and then sealed together. The top plate is coloured with an RGB pattern to make the colour filter. Polarizers are then glued to both plates. This combination is sometimes called 'glass' or 'cell.' The LCD cell is assembled into a 'module' by adding the backlight, driver electronics and frame.
