Ethernet cable, which is used in 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX networks. The network interface controller (NIC) provides all the functions normally handled by a separate network expansion card. To connect your system to and configure it for use on an Ethernet network, see "Using the Network Interface Controller."

USB Connectors

Your system contains two Universal Serial Bus (USB) connectors for attaching USB-compliant devices. USB devices are typically peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers, and computer speakers.

CAUTION: Do not attach a USB device or a combination of USB devices that draw a maximum current over 500 milliamperes (mA) per channel at +5 volts (V). Attaching devices that exceed this threshold may cause the USB ports to shut down. See the documentation that accompanied the USB devices for their maximum current ratings.

If you reconfigure your hardware, you may need pin number and signal information for the USB connectors. Figure B-9 illustrates the pin numbers for the USB connectors, and Table B-8 lists and defines the pin assignments and interface signals for the USB connectors.

2	DATA	I	Data in
3	+DATA	O	Data out
4	GND	N/A	Signal ground

Microphone Jack

The microphone jack (see Figure B-10) can be used to attach a standard personal computer microphone. Connect the audio cable from the microphone to the microphone jack. The microphone input is a mono source with maximum signal levels of 89 millivolts root mean squared (mVrms).
