3. HARDWARE SETUP 7) CPU and Chassis Fan Connectors (3-pin CPUFAN1/2, SYSFAN1/2) These connectors support cooling fans of 860mA (10.3 Watts) or less. Orient the fans so that the heat sink fins allow airflow to go across the onboard heat sink(s) instead of the expansion slots. Depending on the fan manufacturer, the wiring and plug may be different. The red wire should be positive, while the black should be ground. Connect the fan’s plug to the board taking into consideration the polarity of the connector.
PAGE 29
3. HARDWARE SETUP 8) SMBus Connector (6-1 pin SMB) This connector allows you to connect SMBus (System Management Bus) devices. SMBus devices communicate by means of the SMBus with an SMBus host and/ or other SMBus devices. SMBus is a specific implementation of an I2C bus, which is a multi-device bus; that is, multiple chips can be connected to the same bus and each one can act as a master by initiating data transfer. ® TRL-DLS SMB 3.
