Classification depending the data transferred PORT

" SERIAL PORT " 


This ports transmits data bit by bit. Therefore only wire is
provided at this port to transmit one bit at a time . This type of
port is used to connect slow IO devices or communication devices such
as modem . Terminals are also connected to serial ports.
"Parallel Ports"
In a parallel port all the bits of a data is transmitted at the
same time . For example to transmit 8-bit word, Eight wires are
provided on this port. Faster data transfer takes place when we use
these ports .
