Device and Network Interfaces Oracle Solaris 10 8/11 Information
Library| - Solaris USB Architecture (USBA) USB provides a low-
cost means for attaching peripheral devices, including mass-
storage devices, keyboards, mice, and printers, to a system. For
complete information on the USB architecture, visit the USB
website at http://www.usb.org. USBA supports 126 hot-pluggable
USB devices per USB bus. The maximum data transfer rate is 1.5
Mbits (low speed USB 1.x) or 12 Mbits (full speed USB 1.x) or
480 MBits (high speed USB 2.0) Mbits per second (Mbps). USBA
adheres to the Universal Serial Bus 2.0 specification and
provides a transport layer abstraction to USB client drivers.

Device Drivers. For the latest information on writing USB
