A deprecated [2] SuperSpeed+ USB 10 Gbit/s packaging logo. In January 2013 the USB group announced plans to update USB 3.0 to 10 Gbit/s (1250 MB/s). [60] The group ended up creating a new USB specification, USB 3.1, which was released on 31 July 2013, [61] replacing the USB 3.0 standard.
The throughput of each USB port is determined by the slower speed of either the USB port or the USB device connected to the port. High-speed USB 2.0 hubs contain devices called transaction translators that convert between high-speed USB 2.0 buses and full and low speed buses. There may be one translator per hub or per port.
USB 3.0 SuperSpeed – host controller (xHCI) hardware support, no software overhead for out-of-order commands; USB 2.0 High-speed – enables command queuing in USB 2.0 drives; Streams were added to the USB 3.0 SuperSpeed protocol for supporting UAS out-of-order completions USB 3.0 host controller (xHCI) provides hardware support for streams
USB ports and connectors are often color-coded to distinguish their different functions and USB versions. These colors are not part of the USB specification and can vary between manufacturers; for example, the USB 3.0 specification mandates appropriate color-coding while it only recommends blue inserts for Standard-A USB 3.0 connectors and plugs.
A four-port "long cable" "external box" USB hub A four-port "compact design" USB hub: upstream and downstream ports shown. A USB hub is a device that expands a single Universal Serial Bus (USB) port into several so that there are more ports available to connect devices to a host system, similar to a power strip. All devices connected through a ...
It requires a license from Intel. A USB controller using UHCI does little in hardware and requires a software UHCI driver to do much of the work of managing the USB bus. [2] It only supports 32-bit memory addressing, [4] so it requires an IOMMU or a computationally expensive bounce buffer to work with a 64-bit operating system.
The software is available in Windows 9x, Windows 2000 and Windows XP; communication is also possible with Windows NT 4.0 although not under the DCC name. [1] Windows Vista drops support for the Direct Cable Connection feature [2] as Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth have become ubiquitous on newer generation computers. To transfer files and ...
USB-C plug USB-C (SuperSpeed USB 5Gbps) receptacle on an MSI laptop. USB-C, or USB Type-C, is a 24-pin connector (not a protocol) that supersedes previous USB connectors and can carry audio, video, and other data, to connect to monitors or external drives.
