Explanation
USB is a user friendly I/O-interface for connecting peripherals to your PC.
A distinction is made between
- USB 1.1 (transfer rate 12 mbit/sec)
- USB 2.0 (transfer rate 480 mbit/sec)
USB 2.0 devices are backward compatible (with slower transfer rate) with USB 1.1 devices.
An USB connection consists of a shielded cable and two unequal plugs: One for the master and one for the client port.
Erläuterung
Der USB ist eine anwenderfreundliche I/O-Schnittstelle zum Anschluss diverser Peripheriegeräte an einen PC.
Man unterscheidet zwischen
- USB 1.1 (Übertragsrate 12 mbit/sec)
- USB 2.0 (Übertragsrate 480 mbit/sec)
USB 2.0-Geräte sind, mit langsamerer Übertragungsgeschwindigkeit, normalerweise abwärtskompatibel zu USB 1.1-Geräten.
