Help: Header?

[Bill Cherepy]

I was looking at an article on an ASUS motherboard and it mentioned it
provided extra ports via a header. What exactly is a header?

Thanks.

Bill,

A header is a set of pins on the motherboard that provide a place to
connect an external item, in example, the USB ports on the front of a
case need to be hooked up to the USB header pins on the Board.
