With a modem installed, this item enables the modem to power
on the system. With a LAN card installed, the Wake-up On LAN function allows the
network to wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. Refer to “Wake-up On LAN
Connector” on page 16 for more information.

nterconnect Bus was developed by Intel and other industry
leader partners primarily to address two important issues faced by PC hardware designers
today: a) How to allow peripheral devices to take the fullest advantage of the power of
Pentium and Pentium Pro chip technology, and b) Provide a simpler installation process for
peripheral devices, such as Network cards, EIDE or SCSI controllers.
PCI accomplishes these goals with its 32-bit Data path Local Bus design, and support for
Plug & Play. Unlike older expansion bus architectures, PCI provides peripherals with a
direct connection to the CPU and memory. The PCI bus runs at 33Mhz and has a maximum
transfer capability of 132MBps. With Plug & Play, the system BIOS automatically
determines hardware resources for new peripherals, simplifying installation of multiple
interface cards.
