Product Description 
 29 
•  Wake# signal supporting wake events from ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 
•  Software compatible with the PCI Power Management Event (PME) mechanism 
defined in the PCI Power Management Interface Specification, Rev. 1.1 
1.8  IEEE-1394a Connectors (Optional) 
The optional IEEE-1394 interface addresses interconnection of both computer 
peripherals and consumer electronics with these features:  
•  IEEE-1394a operation 
•  Support for up to 63 peer-to-peer devices 
•  Operation ranging from 100 Mbits/sec to 400 Mbits/sec (depending on cable type) 
•  Connection over short and long distances 
•  Support for both asynchronous and isochronous data transfer 
As a manufacturing option, the board includes two IEEE-1394a connectors as follows: 
•  One IEEE-1394a connector located on the back panel.   
•  One IEEE-1394a front-panel header located on the component side.

1.9  Legacy I/O Controller 
The legacy I/O controller provides the following features: 
•  One serial port 
•  One parallel port with Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) and Enhanced Parallel Port  
(EPP) support 
•  Serial IRQ interface compatible with serialized IRQ support for PCI Conventional 
bus systems 
•  PS/2-style mouse and keyboard interfaces 
•  Interface for one 1.44 MB or 2.88 MB diskette drive 
•  Intelligent power management, including a programmable wake-up event interface 
•  PCI Conventional bus power management support 
The BIOS Setup program provides configuration options for the legacy I/O controller. 
1.9.1  Serial Port 
The board has one serial port connector located on the back panel.  The serial port 
supports data transfers at rates of up to 115.2 kbits/sec with BIOS support.
