The board supports up to 14 USB 2.0 ports and two USB 3.0 ports.
The Intel Z68 Express Chipset provides the USB controller for the 2.0 ports. The two
USB 3.0 ports are provided by the NEC* UPD720200 controller. The port arrangement
is as follows:
• Two USB 3.0 ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors (blue)
Six USB 2.0 ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors (black)
•
Eight USB 2.0 front panel ports implemented through four internal headers
•
All 16 USB ports are high-speed, full-speed, and low-speed capable. The USB 3.0 ports
are super-speed capable.
NOTES
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not meet
FCC Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use a shielded
cable that meets the requirements for full-speed devices.
