Console Cables



The term “console cable” includes a wide variety of individual types of cables, all of which can be used to connect to various types of computer equipment. The main function is to allow the users to connect external devices to a computer in order to enhance its performance and functionality.


Most interior components in a computer are also connected to the motherboard or processor via cables, these types of cables are not generally considered “console cables”. Audio input and output, video input and output, and network devices must all use a console cable in order to be connected to a computer. The most common type of console cable is the VGA display cable used to connect a computer system to its monitor.

While console cables are extremely inexpensive, are usually several feet long, and are rarely ever damaged. Even when sold separately, by popular stores who usually carry virtually every console cable, users find it difficult get the correct console cable for a specific device.

Pen Drives Work Using Flash Memory

A pen drive is another name for an USB flash drive. An USB flash drive is a data storage device which consists of flash memory with an integrated USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface. USB flash drives are usually removable and rewritable, and much smaller than a floppy disk.These are often used for the same purposes for which floppy disks or CD-ROMs were used. Pen drives are not only smaller and faster but they are also more durable and reliable than a CD or DVD. Pen drives use the USB mass storage standard which is supported by modern operating systems such as Linux, Mac OS X, Windows. Pen drives draw power from the computer via USB connection so you don't have to worry or think about its power source.
