CHAPTER 3 – CONNECTING YOUR INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD TO YOUR 
COMPUTER

Overview

The included USB cable enables you to connect your computer to your interactive 
whiteboard. Because this cable provides both a digital signal and power from your 
computer to your interactive whiteboard, you don’t need an additional power supply.

Your interactive whiteboard will be touch sensitive after you install SMART Product 
Drivers on your connected computer. After connecting your interactive whiteboard 
to your computer, you must perform a brief orientation procedure. See Orienting Your 
Interactive Whiteboard on page 26.

Power Safety

CAUTION
For operating safety and to avoid damage to your interactive whiteboard, 
connect its USB connector only to a computer that has a USB compliant interface 
that bears the USB logo. In addition, the USB source computer must be compliant 
with CSA/UL/EN 60950 and bear the CE mark and CSA and/or UL mark(s) for 
CSA/UL 60950.

Connecting with a USB Cable

IMPORTANT
For information on connecting using wireless or serial expansion modules, see 
the accessory guides on the 

.

Your SMART Board interactive whiteboard 
has a high-power USB 2.0 high-speed peripheral 
interface that runs at speeds of up to 12 Mbps. 
The unit works with USB 2.0- and USB 1.1-
compliant interfaces. 

Your interactive whiteboard’s main USB 
connection is a captive flying lead cable. The 
connector is a USB Type-B receptacle. 

This captive cable provides convenient access to 
the USB receptacle without you having to remove 
your interactive whiteboard from the wall. You 
can also place the flying lead and USB cable 
in the channel on the back of your interactive 
whiteboard so that they aren’t visible.
