JCPU_FAN / JPWR_FAN / JSYS_FAN:

CPU/Chassis Fan Power Connectors
JCPU_FAN: The CPU must be kept cool by using a

heatsink with fan assembly.
JPWR_FAN: If you are installing an additional fan in

the unit, connect to this fan connector.
JSYS_FAN: The chassis fan will provide adequate
airflow throughout the chassis to prevent overheat-

ing the CPU.
