The Universal Serial Bus is compatible with USB 2.0 or USB 1.1 devices such as
keyboards, pointing devices, cameras, hard disk drives, printers, and scanners connected
in a series up to 12Mbits/sec (USB 1.1) and 480Mbits/sec (USB 2.0). USB allows
many devices to run simultaneously on a single computer, with peripherals such as USB keyboards and
some newer monitors acting as additional plug-in sites or hubs. USB supports hot-swapping of devices
so that most peripherals can be connected or disconnected without restarting the computer.

standard video devices. This port supports both NTSC and PAL formats.
