New page

The bus type is a [[Has type::text]] field containing only one of the following permitted values:

* [[Allows value::ISA]] - original ISA bus
* [[Allows value::EISA]] - IBM's extended ISA bus (VLB cards are often mistakenly called EISA, make sure it really is EISA!)
* [[Allows value::VLB]] - VESA Local Bus
* [[Allows value::PCI]] - original PCI (not PCI Express)
* [[Allows value::AGP]]
* [[Allows value::PCIe]] - PCI Express

Other buses should be added to this page as needed. If a device is available with more than one bus type, a different page should be created for each bus type, as technically those cards are slightly different models.

If a card has multiple bus connections (e.g. some POST cards support both PCI and ISA on different edges of the card) then pick the oldest one, and list the others in the article text using code similar to this:

This card also has a <nowiki>[[Bus type::PCI]]</nowiki> connector.
