Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART)
UART (universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter) refers to the logic on the motherboard that controls the serial ports on the board, and is sometimes referred to as the UART 16550.
do you mean "motherboard I/O ports"? Eg. USB, PS/2, Serial, Parallel...
network, FireWire, and serial.
1. Serial / COM ports 2. Parallel / LPT ports 3. USB ports.
Universal Asynchronous Reciever Transmitter (UART) controls the speed of Serial Ports on Computers.
Most serial and parallel ports today connect directly to the motherboard, and the COM and LPT assignments are made in CMOS setup. The ports can also be enabled and disabled in CMOS settings.The short answer is CMOS Setup A+ Guide to Hardware: pg. 396
Peripheral ports such as COM, USB and serial ports, are input/output interfaces that allow devices to connect to a computer. Expansion slots are sockets on the motherboard where an expansion card is inserted.
Multiple serial, gaming, USB, and parallel ports can be established with an I/O controller card. A controller card works as an interface between the motherboard and various components on a computer.

Most cases have the motherboard ports in the back that way you can hide all the cables and keep them away from alot of activity that may disconnect them.I have not seen a PC with front motherboard ports. But i think its better to leave those ports where they are :)
