Headphone Connector

Use the headphone connector to attach headphones and most speakers for listening to all sounds in your computer including your CD player and system sounds such as beeps.

USB Connectors

HINT: If you attach a USB device that was not included in your original computer order, you may need to install a specific driver to make the device work. Check the documentation that came with the device or contact the USB device manufacturer for more information.

Although any USB device can be attached to either the front- or back-panel USB connectors, Dell recommends using the front-panel USB connectors for devices that you frequently connect and disconnect, such as USB digital cameras and gaming controllers. Use the back-panel USB connectors for devices that you rarely connect and disconnect, such as USB printers, scanners, mouse, and keyboards.

Your computer is equipped with either an auto-sensing voltage selector or a manual voltage-selection switch. See "Safety Instructions" for important voltage setting information.
