4. USB headers (10-1 pin USB34, USB56)

If the USB 2.0 port connectors on the back panel are inadequate, two USB
headers are available for four additional USB port connectors. Connect a 2-
port USB connector set to a USB header and mount the USB bracket to an
open slot in the chassis.

5. GAME/MIDI connector (16-1 pin GAME1)

This connector supports a GAME/MIDI module. If your package came with the
optional USB 2.0/GAME module, connect the GAME/MIDI cable to this
connector. The GAME/MIDI port on the module connects a joystick or a game
pad for playing games, and MIDI devices for playing or editing audio files.
