I/O Connections 

Location: There are three locations on the Vision Series that have I/O connections.  

(1) The rear of the chassis (integrated into the motherboard)  

(2) The front of the chassis (integrated into the chassis front panel) 

(3) The rear of the chassis (integrated into the graphics card, as applicable)  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Procedure: 

Note:

 I/O connections are integral parts of higher-level 

assemblies and thus to replace them the entire assembly would 
need to be replaced.  

To uninstall/reinstall any of the I/O connections refer to the
