self-contained functional software unit ?

what is "self-contained functional software unit " mean in the following?

J2EE applications are made up of components. A J2EE component is a self-contained
functional software unit that is assembled into a J2EE application with its
related classes and files and that communicates with other components.

An analogous 'self-contained functional' HARDware unit would be the hard drive in your PC
A software unit is a class that implements a Business Object or Business Service.  An example would be the classic Order processing example.  Some of the software units would be the Customer Object, Order object and the Order Service.  The Customer and Order Business object would contain all of the logic for accessing an Customers and Orders from persistence(e.g. database).  The Order Service would handle the logic for Customers making Orders.  All of these objects could be combined using J2EE components to make a J2EE Application.
