Data Recovery Glossary > Jumper

Jumper is a metal conductor that closes an electric circuit. Jumper acts as on/off switch and regulates the hardware configurations. A jumper is made of two wires and a small piece of metal. The jumper is turned on when the wires are connected by the metal piece forming a complete circuit. When the circuit is incomplete the jumper is turned off.

Jumpers are found on motherboards, sound cards, graphics cards, I/O cards, CD-ROM interface boards, modems, and hard drive controller boards, and others. Setting a jumper is a very tedious process thus all hardware comes along with the jumper settings. By placing a jumper plug over a different set of pins, we can change the motherboard parameters.
