IBM UltraPortThe UltraPort is a tiny connector sitting at the top edge of the display. It was introduced by IBM with the T20 series and other models of that time, but only continued onto some models from the time of the A31p. With the T30 type models it has vanished completely again. On the controller side the UltraPort is nothing but a USB 1.1 port, so all UltraPort devices are usable on other computers as USB devices as well. |
Devices
There were 5 devices produced by IBM for this port:
- UltraPort Bluetooth Adapter
- UltraPort Camera & UltraPort Camera II
- UltraPort Compact Flash Adapter
- UltraPort Digital Array Microphone
- UltraPort Infrared Adapter
Pin assignment
The following pin layout has been discovered through measuring the UltraPort of a ThinkPad X21. It is not very well tested, but worked well for the author of this information.
| GND | 0 | VBUS | VBUS | GND | D+ | D- | GND | o | ? | ? | ? | 0 | GND |
| Pin | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1,5,8,13 | GND | Ground |
| 2,12 | 0 | probably not connected |
| 3,4 | VBUS | +5 VDC |
| 6 | D+ | Data + |
| 7 | D- | Data - |
| 9,10,11 | ? | unidentified |
| o | it is fastener not a pin |
Linux Support
The UltraPort is recognised and driven by the kernels USB subsystem.
See the individual devices pages above for information on linux support for them.
