The ATX power supply and AT power supply had different connections for the computer motherboard. Also the ATX power supply had provision for some parts of the power supply to be switched on-and-off by the electronics on the motherboard, possibly under the control of software. With an AT power supply it necessary for the user to physically operate a switch. This control feature means that a computer that has an ATX power supply can provide, for example, a "wake-on-LAN" or "wake-on-modem" feature whereby the computer will switch itself on if their a signal on the ethernet cable or modem cable. If necessary it should be possible to adapt an ATX power supply to replace an AT power supply. This could be done by finding an adapter cable. The mother board cable from the ATX power supply would then plug into the adapter cable and the adapter cable would plug into the motherboard.

Thus ATX technology helps in remote start up of PC whereas this is not possible with AT technology where the power is totally not supplied to the motherboard when PC is in shutdown state
