Linking to an Infrared Device
The notebook is IrDA-compliant and can communicate with
another infrared-equipped device that is also IrDA-compliant.
The IrDA connection speed standard is 4 megabits per
second (Mbps).
The infrared port supports low-speed connections up to
115 kilobits per second (Kbps) as well as high-speed connections
up to 4 Mbps.
Infrared performance may vary with the performance of infrared
peripherals, the distance and angle between infrared devices, and
the applications used.
Infrared signals are sent through an invisible beam of infrared
light and require an unobstructed line of sight path.
