In Figure 5, you can see the connectors present on the top panel from this case. Nine Hundred Two has two USB ports and one eSATA port, plus the traditional mic in and headphones out jacks.

The top panel with its 200-mm fan can be seen in Figure 6. It is important to note that this fan uses 190 mm blades, being the exact same size as “bigger” 230 mm fans present on competing products.

The rear panel is shown in Figure 7. As you can see, on Nine Hundred Two the power supply is installed on the bottom of the case. On the top part we have the switches for controlling the speed of the top and rear fans (close-up in Figure 8). The slot covers have four big holes, what definitely helps increasing the internal air flow. This case has eight slots for expansion cards and not only seven as usual. Nine Hundred Two also features two holes for external water cooling systems using rubber covers, so you don’t need to drill or break anything on your case if you want to use this kind of solution.

The top and rear fans can be set at three different speeds (low, medium and high), but Antec doesn’t say the speeds they actually rotate when configured at each position. You can also turn off the blue LED from the top fan through a switch present on the same panel. The “rear 2” switch is missing because this case has only one fan on the rear; this panel is the same one used on Twelve Hundred, which features two rear fans.
