1.6 USB
The USB port arrangement is as follows:
• USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Type C ports (maximum power is 15W for the first connected device;
4.5W for the second connected device):
One port is implemented via the external front panel Type C connector
One port is implemented via the external back panel Type C connector
• USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10 Gbps) Type A ports (maximum current is 900 mA for each port):
One port is implemented with external front panel connector (blue)
Two ports are implemented with external back panel connectors (blue)
• USB 2.0 ports (maximum current is 500 mA for each port of the white header (1 A total):
Two ports via two single-port internal 1x4 1.25 mm pitch headers (white)
One port is reserved for the M.2 2230 Wireless module
All the USB 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.

1.7 SATA Interface
The board provides the following SATA interfaces:
• SATA ports:
One SATA 6.0 Gbps port for 2.5” storage device
• One SATA 6.0 Gbps port is reserved for an M.2 storage module supporting M.2 2242 and
M.2 2280 (key type M) modules
The PCH provides independent SATA ports with a theoretical maximum transfer rate of 6 Gbps. A
point-to-point interface is used for host to device connections.
