Connectors

16) SMB Connector (5-1 pin SMB)

This connector allows you to connect SMBus (System Management Bus) de-

vices. SMBus devices communicate by means of the SMBus with an SMBus

host and/or other SMBus devices. SMBus is a specific implementation of an

I2C bus, which is a multi-device bus; that is, multiple chips can be connected to

the same bus and each one can act as a master by initiating data transfer.

17) USB Header (10-1 pin USB2)

If the USB Ports on the back panels are inadequate, a USB header is available

for two additional USB ports. Connect the 10-1 pin ribbon cable from the pro-

vided 2-port USB connector set to the midboard 10-1 pin USB header and mount

the USB connector set to an open slot on your chassis.

NOTE: To use this header, make sure that the jumpers (see Motherboard Set-

tings, BIOS) are set to USB Connect.
