USB Ports
USB allows data exchange between your computer and a wide range of simultaneously acces-
sible external Plug and Play peripherals.
The PIC-Q170 is equipped with two onboard USB 3.0 ports (USB 1&2). The three 10-pin con-
nectors allow you to connect 6 additional USB 2.0 ports (USB 1-2/3-4/5-6). The one 20-pin
connector allows you to connect 2 additional USB 3.0 ports (USB 3-4).
The PIC-H110 is equipped with two onboard USB 3.0 ports (USB 1&2). The two 10-pin con-
nectors allow you to connect 4 additional USB 2.0 ports (USB 3-4/5-6).
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.
