USB Ports
The USB device allows data exchange between your computer and a wide range of simultane-
ously accessible external Plug and Play peripherals.
The system board is equipped with 4 onboard USB 3.0 ports (USB 0-1/2-3) . The 10-pin con-
nector allows you to connect 2 additional USB 2.0 ports (USB 4-5). The additional USB ports
may be mounted on a card-edge bracket. Install the card-edge bracket to an available slot at
the rear of the system chassis and then insert the USB port cables to a connector.
BIOS Setting
Configure the onboard USB in the Advanced menu (“USB Configuration” submenu) of the
BIOS. Refer to Chapter 3 for more information.
Important:
If you are using the Wake-On-USB Keyboard/Mouse function for 2 USB ports, the
+5V_standby power source of your power supply must support ≥1.5A. For 3 or more
USB ports, the +5V_standby power source of your power supply must support ≥2A.
Driver Installation
You may need to install the proper drivers in your operating system to use the USB device.
