What is a USB to serial converter?
Most serial adapters can be found on computers and they connect the monitor/screen to the actual computer itself. A serial adapter may also be used to connect your television to your laptop. In this case, you would connect the usb part to your television port where it is marked USB and the serial adapter part to your computer.
Which ports transmit data to up to 127 devices in a daisy chain?
USB ports transmit data to up ti 127 devices in a daisy chain.
USB ports are replacing what ports because of their ability to transfer data quickly?
Its Parallel and Serial
What are examples of serial storage devices?
Serial port generally refers to Serial ATA port. These Serial ATA ports are better known as "SATA" ports. You will find them on Hard Drives and Solid State Drives specifically. But you may also find them on peripherals such as card readers for Flash media and Optical Drives. SATA is categorized into 3 categories SATA, SATA II and SATA III. The Function of SATA is to transfer data. Previous to SATA, Computers used "IDE" service which was far slower and more expensive to manufacture than SATA.
How are serial pors amd com ports the same?
COM ports transfer data using a serial connection as opposed to a parallel connection.
The maximum number of devices that can connect to a single USB port is?
u can connect a 4 port adapter to a single usb port but if u are using all for ports u may experience slow data transfer
When would you disable the serial port?
In the past, both the serial and parallel port were the most common means of data transfer and communication used by PCs. Serial ports were used for devices such as modems, mice, and serial port printers. However, in newer PCs, both the serial and parallel ports have been replaced by the use of USB ports. You should only disable serial port(s) if you are absolutely certain that auxiliary devices such as modems; printers; mice; etc.. are USB based and that your PC has enough USB ports to accommodate all of your auxiliary devices. Note: If at some point in the immediate future, you plan to sell your PC, it might be wise to leave the serial port as is.
What are the serial port devices?
Parallel port devices are those devices which are connected to the computer via parallel ports. An example is Printer which is connected to the parallel port LPTx (Line Printer Terminal) eg: LPT1, LPT2, LPT3. Parallel ports were originally developed by IBM as a way to connect a printer to your PC. When a PC sends data to a printer or other device using a parallel port, it sends 8 bits of data (1 byte) at a time. These 8 bits are transmitted parallel to each other, as opposed to the same eight bits being transmitted serially (all in a single row) through a serial port. The standard parallel port is capable of sending 50 to 100 kilobytes of data per second.Answer-- A parallel port is a type of interface found on computers (personal and otherwise) for connecting various peripherals. It is also known as a printer port or Centronics port. The IEEE 1284 standard defines the bi-directional version of the port.
Which port is used to transmit slow data over long distances?
Serial ports
What part of the computer collects data from people and devices?
Input devices connect to the computer and they pass data into the Processor where it can be processed.
What is the difference of serial and parallel ports?
Serial ports only allow one device to send and one device to receive at a time, where a parallel port can send and receive data at the same time.
The method to link 2 computers with serial cable?
To link 2 computers you should have cross cable. Because Serial cable is user to connect 2 or more dissimilar devices. To connect 2 similar devices like computers, Hubs, Switches you should use Cross cable only.In Serial cable 4 pairs of cables are their, 2 pairs for Transmitting and 2 pairs for Receiving the Data. If you use serial cable to connect 2 computers, Conflict will happen while sending and receiving the data. In cross cable 2 pairs of cable will be in a different order so conflict won't happen. So use Cross Cable while connecting 2 similar devices.
