1.12 CNR (Optional)

The CNR connector provides an interface that supports the audio, modem, USB, and LAN
interfaces of the Intel 850 chipset. Figure 10 shows the signal interface between the riser and the
ICH2.
NOTE
The USB bus is routed from the NEC USB 2.0 controller if the USB 2.0 option is supported.
The CNR supports the following interfaces:
AC '97 interface: supports audio and/or modem functions on the CNR board. The
D850MD/D850MV boards support six-channel audio using a CNR board.
LAN interface: eight-pin interface for use with PLC-based devices.
SMBus interface: provides Plug and Play functionality for the CNR board.
USB interface: provides a USB interface for the CNR board.
The CNR connector includes power signals required for power management and for CNR board
operation. To learn more about the CNR, refer to the CNR specification.
NOTE
If you install a CNR card with an audio codec that cannot support a multichannel audio upgrade,
the D850MD and D850MV boards' integrated audio codec will be disabled. This only applies to
D850MD and D850MV boards that have both the onboard audio subsystem and a CNR.
