S/PDIF out connector at the back I/O
This motherboard provides convenient connectivity to external home
theater audio systems via the optical S/PDIF (SONY-PHILIPS Digital
Interface) out connecor at the back I/O. The S/PDIF transfers digital audio
without converting it to analog format and keeps the best signal quality.

enhanced with an ACPI management function to provide efficient power
management for advanced operating systems.
