UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS PORTS
A Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 port allows you to
connect USB devices such as game pads, pointing
devices, keyboards and speakers. USB 2.0 is downward-
compatible with USB 1.1 devices, so older USB devices
will work with these ports. USB 2.0 is a much faster
design, running forty times faster than USB 1.1.
Your LifeBook notebook has four USB 2.0 ports; three
on the back and one on the left side. To connect a USB
device follow these steps:
