Internal connectors

1. TPM connector (20-1 pin TPM) [Optional]

This connector supports a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) system, which can

securely store keys, digital certificates, passwords, and data. A TPM system

also helps enhance network security, protects digital identities, and ensures

platform integrity.

The TPM module is purchased separately.

2. IEEE 1394a port connector (10-1 pin IE1394_2)

This connector is for an IEEE 1394a port. Connect the IEEE 1394a module

cable to this connector, then install the module to a slot opening at the back

of the system chassis.

Never connect a USB cable to the IEEE 1394a connector. Doing so will damage

the motherboard!

You can attach a FireWire/1394 cable to this connector if your chassis suppots

the front panel IEEE1394 port.
