    The connectors the USB committee specifies support a number of USB's underlying goals, and reflect lessons learned from the many connectors the computer industry has used. The female connector mounted on the host or device is called the receptacle, and the male connector attached to the cable is called the plug.

    For isochronous devices like audio streams, the bandwidth is constant and reserved exclusively for a given device. The bus bandwidth therefore only has an effect on the number of channels that can be sent at a time, not the speed or latency of the transmission. Low speed (LS) rate of 1.5 Mbit/s is defined by USB 1.0. It is very similar to full ...

    Keyboard and mouse cables and ports are almost invariably serial—such as PS/2 port, Apple Desktop Bus and USB. The cables that carry digital video are also mostly serial—such as coax cable plugged into a HD-SDI port, a webcam plugged into a USB port or FireWire port , Ethernet cable connecting an IP camera to a Power over Ethernet port, FPD ...

    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. [21] The protocol is being developed from the base of the Wi-Fi Alliance's previous WiGig Serial Extension specification. [22] [23]
