Motherboard Connections
This section describes the connections on the motherboard and provides pinout definitions.
Note that depending on how the system is configured, not all connections are required. The
LEDs on the motherboard are also described here. A severboard layout indicating component
locations may be found in Appendix B.
Please review the Safety Precautions in Chapter 3 before installing or removing components.
4.1 Power Connections
Two power connections on the X11SSH-F must be connected to the power supply. The wiring
is included with the power supply.
•
24-pin Primary ATX Power (JPWR1)
•
8-pin Processor Power (JPWR2)
Main ATX Power Connector
The primary power connector (JPWR1) meets the ATX SSI EPS 12V specification. You must
also connect the 8-pin (JPWR2) processor power connector to your power supply (see below).
Required Connection
Important:
To provide adequate power to the motherboard, connect the 24-pin
and
the 8-pin
