USB Support

The boards suppport up to seven USB ports; four ports routed to the back panel, two to the front
panel connector, and one to the optional CNR. You can connect seven USB peripheral devices
directly to the computer without an external hub. To attach additional devices, connect an external
hub to either of the built-in ports. The board supports the standard universal host controller
interface (UHCI) and takes advantage of standard software drivers written to be compatible with
UHCI.

Class B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is attached to the cable. Use a
shielded cable that meets the requirements for a full-speed USB device.
