I/O Connectors

I/O connectors are the gateways that the system uses to communicate with external devices, such
as a keyboard, mouse, printer, or monitor. This section describes the various connectors on your
system. If you reconfigure the hardware connected to the system, you may also need the pin
number and signal information for these connectors. Figure B-1 illustrates the connectors on the
system.
