Computer Hardware 1st Assignment

This document is a student assignment that provides information about four different computer ports: 1) A serial port transfers data one bit at a time and is used to connect modems, terminals, and peripherals to computers via a 9-pin or 25-pin male connector. 2) A parallel port transfers multiple bits of data at once and is mainly used to connect printers via a 25-pin female connector. 3) A modem port connects a computer's modem to the telephone network and uses an RJ-11 connector. Modems modulate and demodulate analog signals to enable digital communication over phone lines. 4) A VGA port carries analog video signals and is commonly used to connect monitors, projectors

1. Serial Port: A serial port is a type of interface that allows the transfer of data one bit at
a time. Serial ports are often used to connect devices such as modems, terminals, and
various peripherals to computers. Serial ports usually have a 9-pin or 25-pin male
connector.

2. : A parallel port is a type of interface that allows the transfer of data in multiple bits at
once. Parallel ports are mainly used to connect printers to computers, but can also be
used for other devices such as scanners and external hard drives. Parallel ports
usually have a 25-pin female connector

3. Modem Port: A modem port is a type of interface that connects a computer’s modem
to the telephone network. A modem is a device that modulates and demodulates
analog signals to enable digital communication over phone lines. Modem ports can
vary in shape and size, but often use RJ-11 connectors

4. VGA Port: A VGA (Video Graphics Array) port is a type of interface that carries
analog video signals. VGA ports are commonly used to connect monitors, projectors,
and TVs to computers and other video sources. VGA ports have a 15-pin D-
subminiature connector, also known as DE-15 or HD-15
