2. FEATURES Optional Components 2. FEATURES • Low Pin Count (LPC) Multi-I/O: Provides two high-speed UART compatible serial ports and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. UART2 can also be directed from COM2 to the Infrared Module for wireless connections. • Enhanced ACPI & Anti-Boot Virus Protection: Programmable BIOS (Flash EEPROM), offering enhanced ACPI for Windows 98/2000/Millenium compatibility, built-in firmware-based virus protection, and autodetection of most devices for virtually automatic setup. • Smart BIOS: 4Mbit 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. • IrDA: Supports an optional infrared port module for a wireless interface. • Concurrent PCI: Concurrent PCI allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master bus to the memory and processor. 2.1.2 Optional Components • Realtek RTL8139C Ethernet: (optional) Single chip fast ethernet controller for 100/10 Mbps data transfer capacity. (See 4.4.2: I/O Device Configuration in BIOS setup). • IEEE 1394 Controller Interface: (optional) Integrated 3 Port TI® 400Mbps capable link-layer controller and 400Mbps physical layer controller provides the fastest available digital interface for throughput intensive consumer electronics devices like: DV camcorders, digital cameras, scanners, and printers. The IEEE-1394 supports traditional asynchronous data transfer as well as isochronous (real-time) data transfer. Up to 63 peripheral devices may be connected simultaneously. The IEEE 1394 is the fastest available interface for the latest consumer electronics devices. ASUS P4T-M User's Manual 9

FEATURES
Low Pin Count (LPC) Multi-I/O:
Provides two high-speed UART compatible
serial ports and one parallel port with EPP and ECP capabilities. UART2 can
also be directed from COM2 to the Infrared Module for wireless connections.
Enhanced ACPI & Anti-Boot Virus Protection:
Programmable BIOS (Flash
EEPROM), offering enhanced ACPI for Windows 98/2000/Millenium compat-
ibility, built-in firmware-based virus protection, and autodetection of most de-
vices for virtually automatic setup.
Smart BIOS:
4Mbit 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.
IrDA:
Supports an optional infrared port module for a wireless interface.
Concurrent PCI:
Concurrent PCI allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI
master bus to the memory and processor.
