2. FEATURES

Optional Components

• Around-the-Clock Intrusion Detection: Chassis intrusion circuitry can log chas-

sis 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 firm-

ware-based virus protection, and autodetection of most devices for virtually au-

tomatic 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 physi-

cally 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 inte-

grated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) with Alert-On-LAN and Wake-On-LAN Support.

• Adaptec SCSI Chipset: Features Adaptec’s Ultra160 SCSI controller—AIC-

7892B SCSI chipset—that supports any combination of 50-pin narrow or 68-

pin Wide/LVD devices through the optional onboard 50- and 68-pin SCSI con-

nectors. 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, per-

sonal gadgets, or an optional remote controller.

• Wake-Up/Alert Support: Supports Wake-On-LAN/-On-Ring and Alert-On-

LAN activity.
