Input conductors

From this point we will know everything related to computers and their connections, cables and connection ports.

Usb connector

It is a type of connection that allows the transfer of files between the computer and the device that is connected to the USB input. It is a simple connection, with the plug and play concept. The USB connections transmit electricity, avoiding the need to connect the devices connected to the USB to the power.

This type of connection is highly compatible with devices and operating systems, being compatible with Linux, MAC, Windows and even with televisions, sound equipment, DVD, etc. The USB 2.0 standard increased the transmission speed from 1.5mb / second to 60mb / second.

Firewire connector

It is a connection standard for audio and video transmission. It was created to solve the problem of the low speed of the USB 1.0 inputs, and is widely used by video cameras and some digital cameras. Firewire inputs are more stable than normal USB inputs, being ideal for audio and video transmission. It is widely used by video and audio editors, and for secure and fast transmission.

DVI connector

They are the entries commonly used in computers as video inputs. They transmit only images. It is necessary to use P-2 + P-2 cables for audio transmission. The maximum resolution transmitted is lower than that of HDMI, being the second best option for video transmission.

HDMI connector

These are the same tickets mentioned above. The most modern monitors already have this audio and video transmission technology.

RGB / VGA connector

These are the common inputs that connect the video board to the monitor. They are analog inputs that have lower definition than DVI or HDMI digital inputs. The VGA input can also be found in LCD TVs, but not in cathode tube TV sets, which use SVHS format, also analog and of lower quality.

Parallel port

It is a type of connection between peripherals and the computer, commonly used with printers. The parallel port is composed of dozens of pines arranged in two horizontal lines that establish the connection of the peripheral with the computer.

Optical cable (optical fiber)

The optical cable is used to transmit digital audio (Dolby) through the optical fiber. It is used in many DVDs and Home Theaters.

DVI (Digital Video Interface)

The DVI connection transmits data using an analog or digital signal, according to the type of connection of the equipment. DVI connectors can be transformed into HDMI.
