2.8 Connectors

CAUTION

Only the back panel, the front panel audio, and the front panel USB connectors of the D845HV
and D845WN boards have overcurrent protection. The D845HV and D845WN boards’ internal
connectors are not overcurrent protected and should connect only to devices inside the computer’s
chassis, such as fans and internal peripherals. Do not use these connectors to power devices
external to the computer’s chassis. A fault in the load presented by the external devices could
cause damage to the computer, the interconnecting cable, and the external devices themselves.

This section describes the board’s connectors. The connectors can be divided into the following
groups:
• Back panel I/O connectors (see page 54)

 PS/2 keyboard and mouse
 USB
 Parallel port
 Serial port A
 LAN
 Audio (Line out, Line in, and Mic in)

• Internal I/O connectors (see page 57)

 Audio (telephony, auxiliary line input, and ATAPI CD-ROM)
 Fans
 Power
 Add-in boards (CNR, PCI, and AGP)
 IDE
 Diskette drive
 SCSI LED

• External I/O connectors (see page 70)

 Front panel audio
 Front panel USB
 Serial port B
 Auxiliary front panel power/sleep/message-waiting LED
 Front panel (power/sleep/message-waiting LED, power switch, hard drive activity LED,

reset switch, and auxiliary front panel power LED)

NOTE

When installing the board in a microATX chassis, make sure that peripheral devices are installed
at least 1.5 inches above the main power connector, the diskette drive connector, the IDE
connector, and the DIMM sockets.
