Other serial devices such as serial printers or
modems are also connected to these ports.
Parallel port Parallel devices such as parallel printers and
scanners can be connected to this port.

circular DIN (mini-DIN) connector.
Keyboard port This port supports any keyboard with a miniature
circular DIN (mini-DIN) connector.

Stacked dual USB
ports

Integrated LAN port This port supports an RJ45 connector to your
LAN. The LAN port has two small LEDs. These
LEDs provide the following information:

The green LED lights when the integrated
ethernet circuit detects a valid link to the
