Connecting USB devices 
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a serial bus design that is capable of 
cascading peripherals such as a digital camera, keyboard, mouse, 
joystick, scanner, printer and modem. With USB, complex cable 
connections can be eliminated. 
Your computer comes with eight USB ports: four on the front and 
another four on the rear panel. These ports support USB 2.0 high-
performance external devices such as webcams and digital still 
cameras. They also allow you to connect additional USB devices to your 
computer without using up its resources. 
To connect a USB device, simply plug the device cable into any of the 
USB ports 
 (black port). 
Note: Some USB devices have a built-in USB port which allows you 
to connect more USB devices.
