4. USB connectors (10-1 pin USB78; USB910; USB1112)

These connectors are for USB 2.0 ports. Connect the USB module cable

to any of these connectors, then install the module to a slot opening at the

back of the system chassis. These USB connectors comply with USB 2.0

specification that supports up to 480 Mbps connection speed.

Never connect a 1394 cable to the USB connectors. Doing so will damage the

motherboard!

You can connect the USB cable to ASUS Q-Connector (USB, blue) first, and

then install the Q-Connector (USB) to the USB connector onboard.
