The CNR connector is the interface between the motherboard and the CNR board. The connector provides all of the necessary signals to support several different configurations of audio, modem, and/or LAN subsystems in the system

60 pin CNR bus connector pin-out & layout
60 pin CNR bus connector  at the computer motherboard
The CNR provides support for two different LAN interfaces; an eight-pin interface or a seventeen-pin interface (commonly known as MII or IEEE 802.3u). Support for these two interfaces is provided on two separate CNR connector pin-outs. The pin-out for the eight-pin LAN interface is defined in the Type A CNR connector, while the pin-out for the seventeen-pin LAN interface is defined in the Type B CNR connector.
