Smart Boards have a USB-C connection instead of the Serial connections and USB connections that are used on traditional wooden e-Boards.

Connection materials for Smart Boards must be added and ordered separately depending on the way you wish to use the board:

• If you wish to use a single Smart Board on its own, then the DGT USB cable package is sufficient.
• If you wish to use the Smart Boards in a tournament set-up connecting many Smart Boards together, then the tournament connection sets are required.
