SPDIF-out
The system board is equipped with the S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital
Interface) digital audio interface. S/PDIF is a standard audio file
transfer format that transfers digital audio signals to a device without
having to be converted first to an analog format. This prevents the
quality of the audio signal from degrading whenever it is conver ted
to analog.
One card-edge bracket, mounted with the S/PDIF por t, will be
provided as an option. Install the card-edge bracket to the system
chassis then connect the audio cable connector to J5. Make sure pin
1 of the cable connector is aligned with pin 1 of J5. Now connect
external speakers or a device that suppor ts digital output to the
S/PDIF port that is on the bracket.
