The ECX-KBL-U contains an xHCI (Enhanced Host Controller Interface) controller that supports four USB3.0 ports
allowing data transfer up to 5Gb/s. Four of the USB3.0 ports are shared with four of the USB2.0 ports (Port 1 - Port 4).
Not all USB2.0 and USB3.0 ports are physically connected to the board.
USB3.0 ports are backward compatible with USB2.0.
