ICH2 and CNR Signal Interface The interfaces supported by the CNR include the following: • AC '97 interface: supports audio and/or modem functions on the CNR board. • LAN interfaces: provides one of two LAN interfaces for networking functions. Interfaces include an eight-pin interface for use with Platform LAN Connection (PLC) based devices, and a 17-pin interface for Media Independent Interface (MII) based devices (commonly referred to as a PHY). • SMBus interface: provides Plug-and-Play functionality for the CNR board. • USB interface: provides a USB interface for the CNR board. The CNR connector includes power signals required for power management and for CNR board operation. To learn more about the CNR, refer to the CNR specification. NOTE If you install a CNR card with an audio codec that cannot support a mutilchannel audio upgrade, the D850GB board's integrated audio codec will be disabled. This only applies to D850GB boards that have both the onboard audio subystem and a CNR. For information about Obtaining the CNR specification Refer to Section 1.3, page 16 31
