Gigabit LAN onboard (for i865PEa-7ILFR & i865Ga-7IL)
On the strength of Gigabit LAN controller on board, i865PEa-7ILFR and
i865Ga-7IL provide 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet for office and home use. The
Ethernet RJ45 connector is located on top of USB connectors. The right hand side
LED indicates link mode, it lights in yellow whenever linking to network. The left
hand side LED indicates the transfer mode and it lights in green when data is
transferring in 100Mbps (never lights while in 10Mbps), but lights in orange when
transferring in Gigabit’s mode. To enable or disable this function, you may simply
adjust it through BIOS.

Front Audio Connectors
If the housing has been designed with an audio port on the front panel, you’ll be
able to connect onboard audio to front panel through this connector. By the way,
please remove 5-6 and 9-10 jumper caps from the Front Audio Connector before
connecting the cable. Please do not remove these 5-6 and 9-10 yellow jumper
caps if there’s no audio port on the front panel.
Serial ATA Connectors
To connect a serial ATA disk, you have to have a 7-pin serial ATA cable. Connect
two ends of the serial ATA cable to the serial ATA header on the motherboard and
the disk. Like every other traditional disk, you also have to connect a power cable.
Please be noted that it is a jumper free implement; you don’t need to set jumpers
to define a master or slave disk. When serial ATA hard disks are installed on serial
ATA ports, the one connected on SATA1 will be set as the first boot device
automatically. Please note that it doesn’t support Hot-Plug in function.
