Having a little difficulty understanding these connectors, would appreciate an explanation!

1- JAUD1
2- JRGB1
3- JCOM1
4- JTPM1
5- JLPT1
6- JUSB1
7- JUSB2
8- JUSB3
9- JFP1
10- JFP2
11- JSPI1


Now, I understand that "J" is common between those, but what does those even do, and what are those letters abbreviating?
Also if there is any other connectors in a motherboard that might be weird for beginners (like me) and I missed, please mention and explain them too.
Thanks in advance!

Just off the top of my head:

1- JAUD1 - Audio
2- JRGB1 - Red/Green/Blue lighting
3- JCOM1 - Communications
4- JTPM1 - Trusted Platform Module (Win 11 Requirement?)
5- JLPT1 - Line Printer
6- JUSB1 - Universal Serial Bus
7- JUSB2 - Universal Serial Bus
8- JUSB3 - Universal Serial Bus
9- JFP1 - Front Panel?
10- JFP2 - Front Panel?
11- JSPI1 - ???

As @ex_bubblehead states, these are generally defined in motherboard manuals. Spend enough time looking at them and you'll figure them out.

Well I don't really have the motherboard yet so..
Just a question that just RANDOMLY popped in my head. Is JRGB1 only for 1 fan? That's so confusing..
 
If you really want to learn about this stuff, do what I've been doing for the last 15 years. Browse through these forums. Look at the questions other people ask. See how other people answer them. Then see if you can figure out HOW they figured out the answer. You'll find that the answer is often just a user manual read away. Read enough manuals and this starts to make sense.
