9. Support Six USB2.0 Connectors
Compared to traditional USB 1.0/1.1 with the speed of 12Mbps, USB 2.0 has a fancy
speed up to 480Mbps, which is 40 times faster than the traditional one. Except for the
speed increase, USB 2.0 supports old USB 1.0/1.1 software and peripherals, offering

connectors support USB 2.0 function. To connect those two headers, you have to use
proper USB cables and connect them to any USB models.
