17) ASUS IrDA / iPanel Connector (24-1 pin AFPANEL)

This connector allows you to connect an optional ASUS iPanel, an easy to access
drive bay with front I/O ports, status LEDs, and space reserved for a hard disk
drive. If you are not using an ASUS iPanel, you can connect an optional wireless
transmitting and receiving infrared module to the SIR connector or an optional
consumer infrared connector set to the CIR and SIR connectors for both wireless
transmitting and remote control functions through one external infrared module.
This module mounts to a small opening on system cases that support this feature.
You must also configure the setting through UART2 Use Infrared (see 4.4.2 I/
O Device Configuration)
to select whether UART2 is directed for use with COM2
or IrDA. Use the five pins as shown in Back View and connect a ribbon cable
from the module to the motherboard’s SIR connector according to the pin
definitions.

18) ASUS iPanel Audio Connector (12-1 pin AAPANEL)

(on audio model only)
Connect the audio cable from the optional ASUS iPanel to this for front panel
audio control.
