45Using the Notebook PC 4NOTE: The built-in modem and network cannot be installed later as an upgrade. After purchase, modem and/or network can be installed as an expansion card.CAUTION: For electrical safety concerns, only use telephone cables rated 26AWG or higher. (see Glossary for more information)NOTE: When you are connected to an online service, do not place the Notebook PC in suspend (or sleep mode) or else you will disconnect the modem connection.ConnectionsExample of the Notebook PC connected to a telephone jack for use with the built-in modem:Modem ConnectionThe telephone wire used to connect the Notebook PC’s internal modem should have either two or four wires (only two wires (telephone line #1) is used by the modem) and should have an RJ-11 connector on both ends. Connect one end to the modem port and the other end to an analog telephone wall socket (the ones found in residential buildings). Once the driver is setup, the modem is ready to use. Telephone Wall JackTelephone cableswith RJ-11 connectorsTelephone connection is optional Telephone connector is the smaller of the two.WARNING! Only use analog telephone outlets. The built-in modem does not support the voltage used in digital phone systems. Do not connect the RJ-11 to digital phone systems found in many commercial buildings or else damage will occur!

504 Using the Notebook PCTrusted Platform Module (TPM) (on selected models)The TPM, or Trusted Platform Module, is a security hardware device on the system board that will hold computer-generated keys for encryption. It is a hardware-based solution that an help avoid attacks by hackers looking to capture passwords and encryption keys to sensitive data. The TPM provides the abil-ity to the PC or notebook to run applications more secure and to make transactions and communication more trustworthy. The security features provided by the TPM are internally supported by the following cryptographic capa-bilities of each TPM: hashing, random number generation, asymmetric key generation, and asymmetric encryption/decryption. Each individual TPM on each individual computer system has a unique signature initialized during the silicon manufacturing process that further enhances its trust/security effectiveness. Each individual TPM must have an Owner before it is useful as a security device. TPM ApplicationsTPM is useful for any customer that is interested in providing an addition layer of security to the com-puter system. The TPM, when bundled with an optional security software package, can provide overall V\VWHP VHFXULW\ ÀOH SURWHFWLRQ FDSDELOLWLHV DQG SURWHFW DJDLQVW HPDLOSULYDF\ FRQFHUQV 730 KHOSVprovide security that can be stronger than that contained in the system BIOS, operating system, or any non-TPM application.Important: Use your TPM application’s “Restore” or “Migration” function to backup your TPM security data.Note: The TPM is disabled by default.
