Communicating with Your NEC Versa
Type II Cards
Type II cards have a thickness of 5.0 millimeters (mm). Type II cards are often storage
or communications devices such as battery backed Static Random Access Memory
(SRAM), Read Only Memory (ROM), Flash Memory, LAN, and Small Computer
System Interface (SCSI). Typical Type II cards include input/output (I/O) features such
as modems and LANs.
Type II Extended Cards
Many PC cards are Type II extended cards. The extended card has an additional
physical component that protrudes beyond the traditional card size. The extension can
be as large as 40 mm deep by 9.65 mm high. This extension provides room for
additional electronics as well as a location for external connectors.
Type III Cards
Type III cards are thicker (10.5 mm) than Type II cards and allow no extensions. Type
III card uses include advanced function I/O cards with additional features such as
wireless modems, multimode cards (cards with more than one function such as a
combined modem and LAN card), and small hard drive storage.
