AMR Slot 

The AMR (Audio Modem Riser) slot is an industry standard slot 
that allows for the installation of a special audio/modem riser card. 
Different territories have different regulations regarding the 
specifications of a modem card. You can purchase an AMR card 
that is approved in your area and install it directly into the AMR 
slot.
