Serial interface signals are output through the system board's 9-pin,
D-subconnectors. The connectors are located at the back of the system unit. Pin
assignments for the serial interface connector are included at the end of this
section.
USB Interface
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports allow new Plug and Play serial devices to
be added without having to open the system. One USB device may be plugged
into each USB port for direct system connection. With a hub and the proper
cabling, up to 127 USB devices can be addressed by the system. The USB
determines system resources for each peripheral and assigns them without user
intervention. Boot support for a USB keyboard is present so the system can be
booted with a USB keyboard instead of a standard keyboard.
