2.2.7 USB 2.0 Connectors
The MXE-5300 provides four Type A USB 2.0 ports on the front
panel. All are compatible with Hi-Speed, full-speed, and low-speed
USB devices.
The MXE-5300 supports multiple boot devices, including USB
flash, USB external HD, USB floppy, and USB CD-ROM drives.
System Description 13
Boot priority and device can be configured in BIOS. Please refer to
Section 6.2.8 USB Configuration for details.
2.2.8 USB 3.0 Connectors
The MXE-5300 provides two Type A USB 3.0 ports on the front
panel. Based on the TI TUSB7320RKM USB host controller, connection to the host system is achieved through a PCIe x1 Gen2
interface, supporting SuperSpeed, Hi-Speed, full-speed, and lowspeed transmission for the downstream USB 3.0 ports.
The MXE-5300 supports multiple boot devices, including USB
flash, USB external HD, and USB CD-ROM drives. Boot priority
and device can be configured in BIOS.
While the USB 3.0 ports allow boot from CD-ROM, OS
installation via CD-ROM is not supported.
NOTE:
NOTE:
2.2.9 CFast Slot
The MXE-5300 is equipped with a type II push-push CFast host
connector on the front panel, connecting to the host controller by
SATA interface. Data transfer rates up to 3.0Gb/s(300MB/s)/
1.5Gb/s(150MB/s) are supported. The host SATA controller provides a legacy operating mode using I/O space, and an AHCI
operating mode using memory space. The CFast card can function as a storage device for system installation.
