ABSTRACT:
A system, method and apparatus is provided for extended universal serial bus connectivity. In one embodiment, the invention is an apparatus. The apparatus includes a printed circuit board having a plurality or traces. The plurality of traces includes a first set of traces defining a universal serial bus. The first set of traces is routed between a connector site and an interface circuitry site. The plurality of traces also includes a second set of traces. The second set of traces defines extended signals of the universal serial bus. The second set of traces is routed between the connector site and the interface circuitry site.
