Audio Connectors

Front Panel Audio Header: FRONT AUDIO
If your computer case has been designed with embedded audio equipment or you are using an audio
bracket (optional). You can attach these components to the FRONT_AUDIO header of the
mainboard. First remove the jumper caps covering the FRONT_AUDIO pins. Use pins 1, 3 to
connect to the case microphone. Use pins 9,5 to connect to the earphone. If you do not intend to use
the FRONT_AUDIO panel, do not remove the jumper caps. The front panel audio & the back panel
audio can not use simultaneously.
If the jumper caps are in place, jumper cap 1 is on pin 5, pin 6 and
jumper cap 2 is on pin 9, pin 10. If you do not intend to use the
FRONT_AUDIO panel, do not remove the jumper caps.
Attention：The front panel audio & the back panel audio can not
use simultaneously.
S/PDIF Connector: SPDIF
S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interface) is an audio transfer file format, which provides high quality
audio using optical fiber and digital signals. This mainboard is capable of delivering audio output and
receiving audio input through the SPDIF header. One way you would use this header is by using an
SPDIF & FRONT AUDIO bracket (optional) attached to your computer. This bracket will have two
wires that you can attach to the SPDIF header and the FRONT_AUDIO header. This bracket has
RCA connectors similar to that used with most consumer audio products. Using the RCA connectors,
the data can then be output to and input from an S/PDIF device. This bracket will also have the
TOS-LINK connectors. You can also use the TOS-LINK connectors to output audio to an S/PDIF
device. The devices that are receiving and sending information from this header must be S/PDIF
compliant for optimal effect. Note that the SPDIF bracket is optional in the packaging that comes
with this mainboard.
