Input/Output Interfaces
5.7 Universal Serial Bus Interface
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface provides asynchronous/isochronous data transfers with
compatible peripherals such as keyboards, printers, or modems. This high-speed interface
supports hot-plugging of compatible devices, making possible system configuration changes
without powering down or even rebooting systems.
These systems provide eight externally-accessible USB ports, two front panel USB ports (which
may be disabled) and six USB ports on the rear panel. In addition, twe USB ports are available
through an internal header (The USB ports are dynamically configured to either a USB 1.1
controller or the USB 2.0 controller depending on the capability of the peripheral device. The
1.1 controllers provide a maximum transfer rate of 12 Mb/s while the 2.0 controller provides a
maximum transfer rate of 480 Mb/s. Table 5-6 shows the mapping of the USB ports.
