What type of USB ports are on my monitor?

I recently purchased a Lenovo monitor from Newegg and I found 2 USB "ports" on the side of the monitor, which obviously don't fit into any of my USB A devices (mouse, keyboard, flash drives, etc). I would assume that they are USB ports, as they have they USB logo on them. I was wondering what type of USB ports (if they even are USB ports) were and what devices could use them. These USB ports are longer and thinner than their USB A counterparts. If you are wondering what they looked like, I took some pictures of my monitor and my USB ports on them.

these are standard usb 2.0 ports. like many other monitors yours has a usb hub ending up with the two ports on the side. in order for them to work you need to connect mobo back i/o with the usb in (tybe b input)

It would seem that they are not., as I said before, these do not fit into my USB A ports and are longer and thinner. I already have a USB-B plugged in, as I use a USB-A port and my built in webcam on that monitor.

Never mind, it was USB A, it looked like other USB items could not fit because the port was tight. Sorry for the trouble.
