1.9.4 CNR slot
The Communications and Networking Riser (CNR) slot supports interface cards
that integrates audio, modem, and network functionality.
The CNR specification supports interfaces including:
• Audio Codec ‘97 (AC ’97) - for audio and/or modem functions
• Local Area Network (LAN) - for networking functions
• Universal Serial Bus (USB) - for functions implemented in the USB interface, and
technologies such as broadband, DSL, and wireless
• System Management Bus (SMB) - for Plug-n-Play functionality
• Power - to provide the signals required for power management, and the main
power supplies to operate the CNR circuitry
The CNR is tagged to replace the current Audio Modem Riser (AMR) slot because
of its flexibility and added features. Also, the CNR slot does not take up the
motherboard space for one PCI slot because it is a shared slot; rather, it provides
you more options.
