Hardware Installation
The system board supports 6 USB 2.0/1.1 ports. USB allows data
exchange between your computer and a wide range of
simultaneously accessible external Plug and Play peripherals. You must
have the proper drivers installed in your operating system to use the
USB por ts. Refer to your operating systems manual or
documentation.
The system board is equipped with two onboard USB 2.0/1.1 ports
(CN7 - Black). It is also equipped with JUSB1 and JUSB2 for
connecting 4 external USB 2.0/1.1 ports. The USB 2.0/1.1 ports,
which are mounted on a card-edge bracket, will be provided as an
option. If you wish to use the optional USB 2.0/1.1 ports, install the
card-edge bracket to the system chassis then insert the connector
that is attached to the USB 2.0/1.1 port cables to JUSB1 or JUSB2.
The USB ports cable connector can be inserted only if pin 1 of the
connector is aligned with pin 1 of JUSB1 or JUSB2. Now connect the
interface cable connector of your USB 2.0/1.1 device to the USB
2.0/1.1 port that is on the bracket.
Enable or disable the onboard USB in the Integrated Peripherals
submenu of the BIOS. Refer to chapter 3 for more information.

wake up a system from the S3 (STR - Suspend To RAM) state.
To use this function:

submenu of the BIOS must be set to Enabled.
