Motherboard Connections
This section describes the connections on the X11DGO-T 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 motherboard layout
indicating component locations may be found in Chapter 1.
Please review the Safety Precautions in Appendix B before installing or removing components.
4.1 Power Connections
Two proprietary power connectors (JPWR1/JPWR2), located on the midplane, provide main
power for system use. In addition, three 8-pin power connectors (JPW11/JPW12/JPW13) are
also located on the motherboard. Connect all the power connectors to the power supply to
provide adequate power to your system.)
