Intel® Server Board S2600GZ/GL TPS Product Architecture Overview On the Intel® Server Boards S2600GZ and S2600GL, the chipset provides support for the following on-board functions:  Low Pin Count (LPC) interface  Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller  Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)/Serial ATA (SATA) Support  Manageability Features 3.3.1 Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface The chipset implements an LPC Interface as described in the LPC 1.1Specification and provides support for up to two Master/DMI devices. On the server board, the LPC interface is utilized as an interconnect between the chipset and the Integrated Base Board Management Controller as well as providing support for the optional Trusted Platform Module (TMP). 3.3.2 Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller The chipset has two Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI) host controllers that support USB high-speed signaling. High-speed USB 2.0 allows data transfers up to 480 Mb/s which is 40 times faster than full-speed USB. The server board utilizes nine USB 2.0 ports from the chipset. All ports are high-speed, full- speed, and low-speed capable.  Three external USB ports are provided in a stacked housing located on the rear I/O section of the server board.  Two USB ports are routed to an internal 10-pin connector (Labeled "FP_USB" on the server board) that can be cabled for front panel support.  One internal Type 'A' USB port.  One eUSB connector intended for use with an optional eUSB SSD device.  Two USB ports are routed to the integrated BMC. 3.3.2.1 eUSB SSD Support The server board provides support for a low profile eUSB SSD storage device. A 2mm 2x5-pin connector labeled "eUSB SSD" near the rear I/O section of the server board is used to plug this small flash storage device into. Figure 26.
