Mainboard internal connectors and onboard features
Serial ports (internal)
COM2 -6 are configurable to standard or powered COM ports with an in-
ternal COM cable option (max current for powered COM: single port
300mA@5V; all ports together not more than 500mA@5V; single port
600mA@12V; all ports together not more than 900mA@12V).
Maximum voltage drop on 12V is 300mV, on 5V it is 150mV at full load.
This output is designed according to UL regulations and is protected by a
self-resettable fuse.
COM1 is a standard 9 pin DSUB connector in I/O shield supporting “WAKE
On Ring” functionality.

USB 2.0 (internal)
8 USB ports at K1 board and 4 USB ports at K2 are routed to 10pin double
row headers with 2.54 mm pitch. Each header provides 2 ports. These
headers are intended to connect optional front USB modules or USB hubs.
Two USB ports share one fuse. USB port 11 at header USB3 (pins 1,3,5,7)
is shared with PCIe x1 connector PCIE3 (pins A5 to A8) for USB uplink
connection for the "Retail Card".
