Port (medical) Port (medical) In medicine, a port is a small medical appliance that is installed beneath the skin. A catheter connects the port to a vein. Under the skin, the port has a septum through which drugs can be injected and blood samples can be drawn many times, usually with less discomfort for the patient than a more typical needle stick. Ports are used mostly to treat hematology and oncology patients. Ports were previously adapted for use in hemodialysis patients, but were found to be associated with increased r

port Also see Well-Known TCP Port Numbers in the Quick Referencesection of Webopedia. (v.) To move a program from one type of computer to another. To port an application, you need to rewrite sections that are machine dependent, and then recompile the program on the new computer. Programs that can be ported easily are said to be portable.

Open Router Ports & Their Security Implications [Technology Explained] Open Router Ports & Their Security Implications [Technology Explained] An open router port is the term used to refer to a virtual door allowing specific data in or out of your router. One example of a port is the most popular port 80. Port 80 is used for HTTP or Web traffic. If port 80 is closed outbound for your computer, then you would not be able to get to the Internet.

Computer Ports and Their Role in Computer Networking The most important ports on computers are used for computer networking. 1  Physical Ports. 2  A port can be either physical or virtual. Physical network ports allow connecting cables to computers, routers, modems and other peripheral devices. 3  Ethernet ports - square-shaped connection points for Ethernet cables.

Monitor Port A monitor port is a port used to establish the connection between the monitor and computer in order to display the computer's output. The connection can be either analog or digital. Most computers, laptops and other portable devices have built-in hardware, modules and monitor sockets to support monitor ports. Connection to a monitor port is required in order to get an output display. Some of the most common types of such monitor ports include: Digital visual interface (DVI)

Internet Protocol Suite A port is always associated with an IP address of a host and the protocol type of the communication, and thus completes the destination or origination address of a communication session. A port is identified for each address and protocol by a 16-bit number, commonly known as the port number.

How to Prevent Artery Blockage Atherosclerosis, as it is called, can be prevented. Increase LDLs and lower HDLs for assuaging this blockage. (LDLs - Low-Density Lipoproteins; HDLs - High-Density Lipoproteins). Eating foods such as peanuts and walnuts high in LDLs and cutting off heavy food oils can help. Speak to your doctor about your particular situation in relation to any blockage.

Encyclopedia TCP/IP port A number assigned to user sessions and server applications in an IP network. Port numbers, which are standardized by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), reside in the header area of the packet being transmitted and thus identify the purpose of the packet (Web, e-mail, voice call, video call, etc.).

What is a USB Port? A USB port is a standard cable connection interface for personal computers and consumer electronics devices. USB stands for Universal Serial Bus, an industry standard for short-distance digital data communications. USB ports allow USB devices to be connected to each other with and transfer digital data over USB cables.

List of Well-Known TCP Port Numbers Only port numbers 0 to 1024 are reserved for privileged services and designated as well-known ports. Well-known ports are specified in RFC 1700. In TCP/IP and UDP networks, a port is an endpoint to a logical connection and the way a client program specifies a specific server program on a computer in a network. The port number identifies what type of port it is. For example, port 80 is used for HTTP traffic.

Port forwarding In computer networking, port forwarding or port mapping is an application of network address translation (NAT) that redirects a communication request from one address and port number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall.

How To Port Forward a Router What is Port Forwarding? Port forwarding is a method of making a computer on your network accessible to computers on the Internet, even though you are behind a router. It is commonly used for hosting game servers, peer to peer downloading, and voice over IP type applications.

A port is identified for each address and protocol by a 16-bit number, commonly known as the port number. For example, an address may be protocol: TCP, IP address: 1.2.3.4, port number: 80, which may be written 1.2.3.4:80 when the protocol is known from context. Specific port numbers are often used to identify specific services.

parallel port Most personal computers have both a parallel port and at least one serial port. On PCs, the parallel port uses a 25-pin connector (type DB-25) and is used to connect printers, computers and other devices that need relatively high bandwidth. It is often called a Centronics interface after the company that designed the original standard for parallel communication between a computer and printer.

What Are Printer Ports? Software ports are ports on a computer that act as the middleman between the computer and an external device. They act as keys that printers use to interact with computers. There are 65,535 different ports a computer can use, and of that amount the most common printing ports are 9100 and 6001.
