3.7.6 Audio Modem Riser (AMR) Slot

This connector supports a specially designed audio and/or modem card called anAMR. Main processing is done through software and controlled by the motherboard’s system chipset. This provides an upgradeable audio and/or modem solution at an incredibly low cost. There are two types of AMR, one defined as primary and another defined as secondary. This motherboard uses the primary channel so that a secondary AMR can coexist without the need to disable the onboard CODEC. The motherboard’s onboard CODEC must be disabled when using a primary AMR.

NOTE: An AMR is not included with this motherboard.
