Many device interfaces or protocols (e.g., SATA, USB, SAS, PCIe) are used both inside many-device boxes, such as a PC, and one-device-boxes, such as a hard drive enclosure. Accordingly, this page lists both the internal ribbon and external communications cable standards together in one sortable table.
Dell calls this feature PowerShare, [85] and it needs to be enabled in the BIOS. Toshiba calls it USB Sleep-and-Charge. [86] On Acer Inc. and Packard Bell laptops, sleep-and-charge USB ports are marked with a non-standard symbol (the letters USB over a drawing of a battery); the feature is called Power-off USB. [87] Lenovo calls this feature ...
The USB mass storage device class (also known as USB MSC or UMS) is a set of computing communications protocols, specifically a USB Device Class, defined by the USB Implementers Forum that makes a USB device accessible to a host computing device and enables file transfers between the host and the USB device. To a host, the USB device acts as an ...
USB 3.2, released in September 2017, [39] preserves existing USB 3.1 SuperSpeed and SuperSpeedPlus architectures and protocols and their respective operation modes, but introduces two additional SuperSpeedPlus operation modes (USB 3.2 Gen 1×2 and USB 3.2 Gen 2×2) with the new USB-C Fabric with signaling rates of 10 and 20 Gbit/s (raw data ...
USB3 Gen X follows the Enhanced SuperSpeed Hub topology, where every USB4 router with more than one USB3 endpoint must include a USB3 hub as well. It is the default way USB3 connections through USB4 are made. Supporting it at 10 Gbit/s (SuperSpeed USB 10 Gbps, Gen 2x1) is mandatory on every USB4 DFP. The minimum supported speed for the USB3 ...
Fibre Channel host bus adapter. The term host bus adapter (HBA) may be used to refer to a Fibre Channel interface card. In this case, it allows devices in a Fibre Channel storage area network to communicate data between each other – it may connect a server to a switch or storage device, connect multiple storage systems, or connect multiple servers.

PC Card is a parallel peripheral interface for laptop computers and PDAs. [1] The PCMCIA originally introduced the 16-bit ISA-based PCMCIA Card in 1990, but renamed it to PC Card in March 1995 to avoid confusion with the name of the organization. [2]
As of 2013, Media Agnostic USB (MA USB) is a specification being developed by the USB Implementers Forum. It is intended to enable communication using the Universal Serial Bus (USB) protocol to be performed over a wide range of physical communication media, including WiFi and WiGig wireless networks.
