RJ-45 LAN Port

The Gigabit Ethernet LAN port provides Internet connection at up to 1 Gbps data rate. The following 

describes the states of the LAN port LEDs.

 

When removing the cable connected to a back panel connector, first remove the cable from your 

device and then remove it from the motherboard.

 

When removing the cable, pull it straight out from the connector. Do not rock it side to side to prevent 

an electrical short inside the cable connector.

The audio jacks can be reconfigured to perform different functions via the audio software 

(supported 

functions for each jack may vary based on hardware specification). Only microphones still MUST be 

connected to the default Mic in jack.

Center/Subwoofer Speaker Out Jack

Use this audio jack to connect center/subwoofer speakers in a 5.1/7.1-channel audio configuration.

Rear Speaker Out

This jack can be used to connect front speakers in a 4/5.1/7.1-channel audio configuration.

Optical S/PDIF Out Connector

This connector provides digital audio out to an external audio system that supports digital optical audio. 

Before using this feature, ensure that your audio system provides an optical digital audio in connector.

Line In

The default line in jack. Use this audio jack for line in devices such as an optical drive, walkman, etc.

Line Out

The default line out jack. This jack supports audio amplifying function. For better sound quality, it is 

recommended that you connect your headphone/speaker to this jack. Use this audio jack for a headphone 

or 2-channel speaker. This jack can be used to connect front speakers in a 4/5.1/7.1-channel audio 

configuration.
