USB Universal Serial Bus. An industry standard for connecting different compatible peripheral devices across multiple platforms. Devices include printers, digital cameras, scanners, game pads, joysticks, keyboards and mice, and storage devices. USB peripherals offer the use of plug-and-play convenience by eliminating the need to turn off or restart the computer when attaching a new peripheral. Users can connect USB peripherals whenever they need them. For example, a user producing a newsletter could easily swap a digital camera for a scanner-without any downtime. Small, simple, inexpensive, and easy to attach, USB supports simultaneous connection of up to 127 devices by attaching peripherals through interconnected external hubs. 3.1 Gen1 / Gen 2 devices can only be used for data storage.

It sets up a filing system to store files and tells the computer how to display information on a video display. Most PC operating systems are DOS (disc operated system) systems, meaning the instructions are stored on a disc (as opposed to being originally stored in the microprocessors of the computer). Other well-known operating systems include UNIX, Linux, Macintosh, and Windows. and drivers that fully support USB Universal Serial Bus.

It is strongly recommended that you connect your devices to ports with matching data transfer rate.  Please connect your USB 3.1 Gen 1 devices to USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports and your USB 3.1 Gen 2 devices to USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports for faster and better performance for your devices.

Audio Subsystem

The onboard audio subsystem consists of the following components:

• Intel X299 Chipset

• RealTek S1220A CODEC

The subsystem has the following headers and connectors:

• Six back panel audio connectors (including one Optical S/PDIF out port)

• High Definition (HD) Audio front panel header that provides mic in and line out signals for front panel audio connectors

The audio subsystem supports the following features:

• Advanced jack detection for the back panel analog audio jacks that enables the audio codec to recognize the device that is connected to an audio port. The front panel audio jacks are capable of re-tasking according to the user’s definition, or can be automatically switched depending on the recognized device type.

• Independent multi-streaming.

LAN Subsystem

The board’s Gigabit (10/100/1000 Mb/s) LAN subsystem includes:

• Intel X299 Express Chipset

• Intel I219-V Gigabit Ethernet LAN Controller

• An RJ-45 LAN connector with integrated status LEDs

The subsystem features:

• CSMA/CD protocol engine

• LAN connect interface The interconnections that allow a device, a program, or a person to interact. Hardware interfaces are the cables that connect the device to its power source and to other devices. Software interfaces allow the program to communicate with other programs (such as the operating system), and user interfaces allow the user to communicate with the program (e.g., via mouse, menu commands, icons, voice commands, etc.). between the Intel PCH and the LAN controllers

• PCI bus power management

• ACPI ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is an open industry specification co-developed by Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Microsoft, Phoenix, and Toshiba. ACPI establishes industry-standard interfaces for OS-directed configuration and power management on laptops, desktops, and servers. technology support

• LAN wake capabilities

Two LEDs are built into the RJ-45 LAN connector located on the back panel.   These LEDs indicate the status of the LAN.

This table describes the LED states when the board is powered up and the LAN subsystem is operating.
