A smart card is a credit card-sized accessory that carries a microchip containing memory and a
microprocessor. Like personal computers, smart cards have an operating system to manage input
and output, and they include security features to protect against tampering.
Industry-standard smart cards are used with the smart card reader.
A PIN is needed to gain access to the contents of the microchip. For more information about smart
card security features, see Help and Support.

Using a USB device
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a hardware interface that can be used to connect an optional external
device, such as a USB keyboard, mouse, drive, printer, scanner, or hub.
Some USB devices may require additional support software, which is usually included with the
device. For more information about device-specific software, see the manufacturer's instructions.
The computer has at least 1 USB port that supports USB 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, or 3.0 devices. Your computer
may also have a USB charging port that provides power to an external device. An optional docking
device or USB hub provides additional USB ports that can be used with the computer.
Connecting a USB device
CAUTION:
To prevent damage to a USB connector, use minimal force to connect a USB device.
NOTE:
The USB port on your computer may look slightly different from the illustration in this
section.
