13. COM Debug header
This header allows connection to a COM Debug card.
The COM Debug Card is purchased separately.
14. Front panel audio header
This header is for a chassis-mounted front panel audio I/O module that
supports HD audio standard. Connect one end of the front panel audio
I/O module cable to this header.
• We recommend that you connect a high-denition front panel
audio module to this header to avail of the motherboard’s high-
denition audio capability.
• If you want to connect a high-denition front panel audio
module to this header, set the Front Panel Type item in the
BIOS setup to [HD Audio]. By default, this header is set to [HD
Audio].
15. LPT header
The LPT (Line Printing Terminal) header supports devices such as a printer.
LPT standardizes as IEEE 1284, which is the parallel port interface on IBM
PC-compatible computers.
16. Mono-out header
This internal mono-out header allows connection to an internal, low power
speaker for basic system sound capability. The subsystem is capable of driving a
speaker load of 4 Ohms at 3 Watts (rms).
17. System Management Bus header
The System Management Bus (SMBus) connector allows you to
connect a SMBus device. This connector is generally used for
communication with the system and power management-related
tasks.
18. Speaker header
The 4-pin header is for the chassis-mounted system warning speaker. The
speaker allows you to hear system beeps and warnings.
