NOTE: Because the OH and USB0 connectors both share pin 25, you cannot

have both connnected at the same time.

Extra Universal Serial Bus Connection (USB0)

An additional connection for USB0 is included on pins 25, 27, 29 and 31 of JF1 for front side USB ac- cess. You cannot have devices connected to both this and the back side connector at J12. See Table 2-12 for pin definitions. You will need a USB cable (not in- cluded) to use this connection.
