Interface (Ports & Jacks)
Interface (Ports & Jacks) A - 3
A
e-SATA/Powered USB
3.0 Port
This is a combined e-SATA (external Serial Advanced Technology Attachment)/ USB 3.0
compatible port.
Plug external Serial ATA hard drives into this e-SATA (external Serial Advanced Technology At-
tachment) port. *See “USB 2.0/1.1 Ports*” on page A - 5 for further USB port information.
Note: The powered USB 3.0 port (see “Left View” on page 1 - 18) may be toggled on /off by
means of the Fn + Power Button key combination (press for around 1 to 2 seconds to toggle).
When the powered USB port is on it will supply power (for charging devices only, not for oper-
ating devices) when the system is off but still powered by the AC/DC adapter plugged into a work-
ing outlet, or powered by the battery with a capacity level above 20% (this may not work with
certain devices - see page 8 - 13).
Note: This function is designed to help charge USB compliant devices, but is not designed to
allow their operation.
HDMI-Out Port The HDMI-Out (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) port is an audio/video connector
interface for transmitting uncompressed digital streams. This allows you to connect an external
monitor, TV or Flat Panel Display etc. as a display device (see “Configuring an External
Display (NVIDIA)” on page C - 6) by means of a HDMI cable. Note that HDMI carries both
audio and video signals (see “HDMI Audio Configuration” on page C - 18).
Headphone-Out Jack Headphones or speakers may be connected through this jack. Note: Set your system’s volume
to a reduced level before connecting to this jack.
