Motherboard Pin Layout
Connecting the IEEE 1394 (FireWire®, i.Link®) Port
You will find a single 10-pin connector on a cable attached to the front IEEE 1394
connection. This is an Intel standard connector, which is keyed so that it can’t
be accidentally reversed when connected to a proper Intel standard motherboard
header. Connect the 10-pin connector to the motherboard header so that the
blocked pin fits over the missing header pin.
Note: Please check the motherboard manual for the IEEE 1394 header pin layout
and make sure it matches the attached table. If you intend to connect the front
FireWire port to an IEEE 1394 add-on card that comes with an external-type
IEEE1394 connector, please call Antec customer service at (800) 22ANTEC (North
America) or +31 (0) 10 462-2060 (Europe) to buy an adapter. This adapter will
allow you to connect the front IEEE 1394 port to the external-type connector.
