USB
IT Infrastructure and Networking
USB (Universal Serial Bus) is an industry-standard set of specifications for cables, connectors, and communication protocols used to connect peripherals like keyboards, storage drives, and phones to computers, and to deliver power. It replaced a patchwork of earlier proprietary connectors with a common plug-and-play standard, and has evolved through versions (USB 2.0, 3.0, 3.2, USB4) offering increasing data transfer speeds, alongside connector types like USB-A, USB-B, and USB-C. It's used ubiquitously by consumers, IT professionals, and hardware engineers.
