Peripheral
Auxiliary input/output device for a computer

A peripheral device is an auxiliary computer hardware component that transfers information externally but is not part of the core system. Peripherals are categorized by data flow: input devices like mice and keyboards send data to the computer, while output devices such as monitors and printers receive data from it. Input/output devices including USB flash drives and routers both send and receive data. Modern gadgets like smartphones and tablets commonly function as peripherals.
