The USB port arrangement is as follows:

 USB 3.0 ports (maximum current is 900 mA for each blue port, 1.5 A for the yellow charging

port):

― Two ports are implemented with external front panel connectors (one blue and one yellow

charging capable)

― Two ports are implemented with external back panel connectors (blue)

― Two ports are implmented with an internal header (blue)

― One port is implemented with the external black panel Type C connector

All the USB 3.0 ports are super-speed, high-speed, full-speed, and low-speed capable.

 USB 2.0 ports (maximum current is 500 mA for each port of the white header (1 A total):

― Two ports via internal common IO header (white)

― One port is reserved for the M.2 2230 Wireless module

All the USB 2.0 ports are high-speed, full-speed, and low-speed capable.

NOTE

Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not meet FCC

Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use a shielded cable that meets

the requirements for full-speed devices.

NOTE

The yellow USB charging port can be set in the BIOS to “Charging Only.” However this affects only

USB 2.0 devices and transfers and does not affect USB 3.0 devices and transfers.
