2. FEA TURES Optional Components 2. FEATURES • Around-the-Clock Intrusion Detection: Chassis intrusion circuitry can log chassis panel open events into LDCM. The onboard battery supports detection even when normal power is removed and through a new design, battery drain is even lower than the RTC used for keeping time! • PC Health Monitoring: Provides an easy way to examine and manage system status information, such as CPU and systerm voltages, temperatures, and fan status through the onboard hardware ASUS ASIC and the bundled ASUS PC Probe or Intel LDCM software. • PCI/ISA Expansion Slots: Provides five 32-bit PCI (Rev. 2.2) expansion slots, which can support Bus Master PCI cards, such as SCSI or LAN cards, and one ISA slot (optional) to support legacy add-on cards. (PCI supports up to 133MB/s maximum throughput.) In LAN models, supports a secondary Wake-On-LAN activity with an optional Wake-On-LAN Ethernet card on the expansion slot. • Enhanced ACPI & Anti-Boot Virus Protection: Programmable BIOS (Flash EEPROM), offering enhanced ACPI for Windows 98 compatibility, built-in firmware-based virus protection, and autodetection of most devices for virtually automatic setup. • Smart BIOS: 4Mb firmware gives a new easy-to-use interface which provides more control and protection over the motherboard. Provides Vcore and CPU/ RDRAM frequency adjustments, boot block write protection, and HD/SCSI/MO/ ZIP/CD/Floppy boot selection. Hardware random number generator supports new security software for data protection and secured Internet transactions. • SMBus: Features the System Management Bus interface, which is used to physically transport commands and information between SMBus devices. 2.1.2 Specifications-Optional Components The following onboard components are optional at the time of purchase: • Network Interface: Features the Intel 82559 Fast-Ethernet Controller (fully integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) with Alert-On-LAN and Wake-On-LAN Support. • Adaptec SCSI Chipset: Features Adaptec's Ultra160 SCSI controller-AIC7892B SCSI chipset-that supports any combination of 50-pin narrow or 68pin Wide/LVD devices through the optional onboard 50- and 68-pin SCSI connectors. Ultra160 SCSI technology provides new levels of I/O performance (160MB/sec compared with Ultra2 SCSI's 80MB/sec) and reliability. Besides, it is completely backward compatible with every generation of SCSI devices. • PCI Audio: Provides Yamaha PCI audio chipset. • Infrared Interface: Integrated serial infrared interface supports an optional re- mote control package for wireless interfacing with external peripherals, personal gadgets, or an optional remote controller. • Wake-Up/Alert Support: Supports Wake-On-LAN/-On-Ring and Alert-OnLAN activity.
