Installing the 5.1/7.1 Surround Cable (Optional)

The 5.1/7.1 Surround Cable provides center/ subwoofer speaker out, rear speaker out, and side speaker out audio jacks. To set up multi-channel surround sound, this cable needs to be installed.

Step:

1.Connect the 5.1/7.1 surround cable connector to the HDA_SUR header on the motherboard.

2.Secure the cable's metal bracket to the chassis back panel with a screw.

Audio Jacks Introduction

The optional 5.1/7.1 surround cable adds additional 3 audio jacks to the 3 onboard audio jacks. The picture to the right shows the default speaker set- tings for the 6 audio jacks. The jack retasking capability of HD Audio allows users to change the function for each jack through the audio driver. For example, if a rear speaker is plugged into the center/subwoofer speaker out jack, you can reconfigure the center/subwoofer speaker out jack to function as a rear speaker out jack.
