Cables and Plugs, Ports, Jacks, Connectors Connections: Six Major Types (External) • DIN • USB • FireWire • DB • RJ • Audio Plug vs Port • • • Plug goes into a Port Port accepts the Plug Plug is the male: Port is the female DIN & mini-DIN • • • DIN Deutsche Industrie Norm (DIN) Ps/2 (Personal System 2) Connector Not Hot Swappable Mini-DIN USB • • Universal Serial Bus Speeds/Types • USB 1.1 • • • • • Low Full USB 2.0 USB 3.0 A, B, & C eSata • • • Primarily used for external HDD Higher transfer rate than USB or FireWire Does not transmit power FireWire • • IEEE 1394, i.LINK, or Lynx 2 Speeds • • • IEEE 1394a IEEE 1394b Hub or Daisy Chain What’s the Speed! DB Connectors • • D-sub or D-shell Range from 9 to 37 pins Audio Connectors • • • Also know as TRS Connectors Most common are the 3.5 mm or 1/8″ mini audio jack Larger variety of TRS is the ¼” Digital Audio Cables (TOSLINK) • Fiber optic cables • transmit pure digital audio through light VGA • • Video Graphics Array Connecting a computer to a monitor • • Projector TV DVI • • • Digital Visual Interface Transmits Video Digitally 3 Main Types of DVI • • • DVI-A DVI-D DVI-I HDMI • • High-Definition Multimedia Interface Carry Video & Sound DisplayPort • • Combined digital video and audio cable More common on computers RJ Connectors • RJ-11 • The Telephone Cable • RJ-45 • The Internet Cable T568-A vs T568-b • T568-A Older Standard • • More commonly used for jumpers T568-B More Common Standard • • Used primarily for installed wiring NYOS uses T568-B wiring Match the Port! P1 & P4 Power Cables • P1 Power Connector • • • 20 – 24 pin Main Power P4 is extra power • 4 pin connector Molex • • Power Connection for devices that need 5 or 12v Caution! Mini Connector • • • Another connector that supplies 5 to 12v Primarily used for floppy drives Caution! SATA Power Connector • • • • 15 pin power connector Supplies 3.3, 5, and 12v power Hot swappable Splitters and Adapters Serial ATA Cable • • Connects host bus adapters to mass storage devices Replaced PATA Cable • • • • Faster Transfer Rate Reduced Cable Size Hot Swappable Speeds of 1.5, 3, 6, & 16 Gbit/s Name the Connectors!
