3. Power Switch (labeled POWER SW) connects to the PWR connector on the
motherboard.
4. Hard Drive LED I & II (labeled HDD I, HDD II) connectors. You may use these
LEDs for indicating activity on two different hard drives, or any other indication
your system supports.
Connecting the USB Ports
You will find a single 10-pin connector on a cable attached to the front USB ports.
This is an Intel standard connector, which is keyed so that it can’t be accidentally,
reversed as long as it is connected to a proper Intel standard motherboard header.
Connect the 10-pin connector to your motherboard headers so that the blocked pin
fits over the missing header pin.
Note: Please check your motherboard manual for your USB header pin layout and
make sure it matches the attached table. If it does not match this Intel standard,
please contact your motherboard manufacturer for an adapter. You may also call
Antec customer support at (800) 22ANTEC (North America) or
+31 (0) 10 462-2060 (Europe) to purchase a USB adapter. This adapter will allow
you to connect the front USB to your motherboard on a pin-by-pin basis.
