Introduction

This jack outputs analog audio signals. This jack 

can be used also as S/P DIF jack and enables 

connection of optical digital correspondence 

apparatus.

A 3.5 mm mini microphone jack enables 

connection of a three-conductor mini jack for 

monaural microphone input. 

Where present, it provides capability for data and 

fax communication. It supports V.90 (V.92). The 

speed of data transfer and fax communication 

depends on the analog telephone line conditions. 

The computer has a modem jack for connection 

to a telephone line. Both V.90 and V.92 are 

supported only in the USA, Canada, Australia. 

V.90 is available in other regions. 
 (Provided with some models)

The computer is equipped with a LAN card that 

supports Fast Ethernet LAN (100 Mbit/s, 

100BASE-TX) or Gigabit Ethernet LAN (1 Gbit/s, 

1000BASE-T). It is preinstalled as a standard 

device in some markets. 
(depending on model you purchased)

Where present, it supports the A,B,G and draft N 

standards but it is compatible with other LAN 

systems based on Direct Sequence Spread 

Spectrum / Orthogonal Frequency Division 

Multiplexing radio technology that complies with 

the IEEE 802.11 Standard.
