Common Connector List

A high level goal of this document is to enable interchangeability of chassis with
motherboards from different suppliers. A common set of minimum interface
connectors between the motherboard and chassis is required to achieve a true
building block model for system integrators. The below table outlines these
standardized connectors.

It is expected that a group of motherboard connectors will exit the system via the Thin
Mini-ITX I/O aperture per industry standards. An example set of external I/O that
could be found on a Thin Mini-ITX motherboard is:
 DC Input
 USB 2.0
 USB 3.0
 RJ-45 LAN
 HDMI (in/out)
 eSATA
