Introduction

IrDA

The system board is equipped with an IrDA connector

for wireless connectivity between your computer and peripheral devices. The IRDA (Infrared Data Association) specification supports data transfers of 115K baud at a distance of 1 meter.

The system board supports USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 ports. USB 1.1 supports 12Mb/second bandwidth while USB 2.0 supports 480Mb/second bandwidth providing a marked improvement in device transfer

speeds between your computer and a wide range of simultaneously accessible external Plug and Play peripherals.

Wake-On-Ring

This feature allows the system that is in the

 

Suspend mode or Soft Power Off mode to

wake-up/power-on to respond to calls coming from an external mo- dem or respond to calls from a modem PCI card that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal to remotely wake up the PC.

Important:

If you are using a modem add-in card, the 5VSB power source of your power supply must support a minimum of 720mA.

This feature allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC.

It is supported via the onboard LAN port or via a PCI LAN card that uses the PCI PME (Power Management Event) signal. However, if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on the system only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt.

Important:

The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support 720mA.

Wake-On-PS/2

This function allows you to use the PS/2 key-

board or PS/2 mouse to power-on the sys-

tem.

 

Important:

The 5VSB power source of your power supply must support 720mA.
