Wake-On-LAN
IrDA
The Gigabit MAC (Media Access Control) technology in-
tegrated in NVIDIA
®
MCP51 and the external Vitesse
VSC8601 Gigabit Phy supports up to 1Gbps.
IEEE 1394 is fully compliant with the 1394 OHCI (Open
Host Controller Interface) 1.1 specification. It supports up
to 63 devices that can run simultaneously on a system.
1394 is a fast external bus standard that supports data
transfer rates of up to 400Mbps. In addition to its high speed, it
also supports isochronous data transfer which is ideal for video de-
vices that need to transfer high levels of data in real-time. 1394
supports both Plug-and-Play and hot plugging.
The system board is equipped with an IrDA connector
for wireless connectivity between your computer and
peripheral devices. The IRDA (Infrared Data Association) specification
supports data transfers of 115K baud at a distance of 1 meter.
The system board suppor ts USB 2.0 and USB 1.1
por ts. USB 1.1 suppor ts 12Mb/second bandwidth
while USB 2.0 suppor ts 480Mb/second bandwidth
providing a marked improvement in device transfer
speeds between your computer and a wide range of simultaneously
accessible external Plug and Play peripherals.
This feature allows the network to remotely
wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC.
It is supported via the onboard LAN port or via a PCI LAN card
that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal. However,
if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on the system
only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt.
Important:
The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support
≥
720mA.
