Notebook computers and USB, the Universal Serial Bus, should be a happy marriage of two convenience-oriented technologies. But older notebooks may not be equipped with USB ports, and in that case, you'll need ADS Technologies' USB Port Adapter to use USB peripherals with your notebook.
Why would you want to use USB peripherals? Well, for one thing, USB offers very fast data transfer rates, which is superior to standard serial and parallel port connectivity. Furthermore, over one hundred USB devices can be connected to a single USB port, and all those devices are capable of sharing the same system resources such as a single IRQ setting, to minimize conflicts between devices. USB devices are also hot-swappable, meaning that your computer recognizes them as soon as they are connected, without the need to reboot the system.
ADS Tech's USB Port Adapter consists of a Type II PC Card connected to a USB port hub with two ports. The PC Card uses CardBus technology and is usable only by CardBus-enabled notebooks. It also requires an operating system which supports USB, such as Windows 98. The USB Port Adapter comes with a user's manual to guide you through the quick and easy setup procedure. If your notebook doesn't support USB, get this adapter by ADS Technologies, and get connected to USB devices with speed and simplicity!
