The board has three RJ45 connectors on board. One of them supports the
Ethernet function featured on the ETX module. Another two connectors
support either two 10/100Mbps LAN or two Gigabit LAN on the
baseboard.
The IP350 comes with an extension interface card that sits on top of the
first layer connectors. The card is IP350R, which has connectors for
printer port, 3
rd

The Compact Flash connector on board is for CompactFlash Type I
memory cards. A Compact Flash memory card is a solid state disk card
with a 50-pin connector. The pins provide a connection between the
memory and the Compact Flash drive. Compact Flash cards are designed
with flash technology, a non-volatile storage solution that does not lose
its information once power is removed from the card. The cards contain
no moving parts and are extremely rugged, providing much greater
protection of data than conventional magnetic disk drives.
