BACK PANEL COMPONENTS

Following is a brief description of your LifeBook note- book’s back panel components.

Anti-theft Lock Slot

The anti-theft lock slot allows you to attach an optional physical lock down device.

USB 2.0 Ports

The USB 2.0 ports allow you to connect Universal Serial Bus devices. USB 2.0 transfers data at up to 480Mbps and is backward-compatible with USB 1.1 devices, which transfer data at up to 12Mbps. There is a total of five USB 2.0 ports on your system: one on the right side and four in the back. (See Universal Serial Bus Ports on page 42 for more information)

Gigabit LAN (RJ-45) Jack

The internal LAN (RJ-45) jack is used for an internal Gigabit (10Base-T/100Base-Tx/1000Base-T) Ethernet LAN connection. (See Internal LAN (RJ-45) Jack on page 42 for more information)

S-Video Out Port

The S-Video output is used to transmit a high resolution video signal to a compatible TV or VCR. (See S-Video Out Port on page 43 for more information)

Air Vents

The air vents are used to cool the system to prevent over- heating.

To protect your notebook from damage and to optimize performance, be sure to keep all air all vents unobstructed, clean, and clear of debris. They may require periodic cleaning, depending upon the environment in which the system is used.

Do not operate the notebook in areas where the air vents can be obstructed, such as in tight enclosures or on soft surfaces like a bed or cushion.

External Video Port

The external video port allows you to connect an external monitor or LCD projector. (See External Video Port on page 43 for more information)

Modem (RJ-11) Telephone Jack

The Modem (RJ-11) telephone jack is for attaching a telephone line to the internal multinational 56K modem. (See Modem (RJ-11) Telephone Jack on page 42 for more information)

The internal modem is not intended for use with Digital PBX systems. Do not connect the internal modem to a Digital PBX as it may cause serious damage to the internal modem or your entire notebook. Consult your PBX manufacturer’s documentation for details. Some hotels have Digital PBX systems. Be sure to find out BEFORE you connect your modem.

The internal multinational modem is designed to the ITU-T V.90/v.92 standard. Its maximum speed of 53000bps is the highest allowed by FCC, and its actual connection rate depends on the line conditions. The maximum speed is 33600 bps at upload, in accordance with FCC regulations.
