What do I need to use the infrared ports built into motherboards?

I have an infrared remote control for a Hauppauge TV tuner card that
includes a transmitter and receiver (LED and phototransistor?)
connected to a 4-section phono plug. Can I simply wire it into the
transmit and receive ports? Do I need to include current-limiting
resistors?
