Featuring a full-range of integrated peripherals for general industrial and embedded applications, Axiomtek has announced the IMB211 industrial-grade ATX motherboard. The board is based on 4th Generation Intel Core i7/i5/i3/ Celeron processors in LGA1150 socket with Intel Q87 Express chipset.

Four 204-pin DDR3-1333/1600 slots provide a maximum memory capacity of 32GB to improve overall system performance. This industrial-grade high performance motherboard also supports Intel Active Management Technology 9.0 (iAMT 9.0), SATA RAID, and triple-display capability through DisplayPort, HDMI and DVI-I interface. The board helps users to deploy more responsive, high-performance, graphic performance systems for advanced communication, gaming, industrial and automation applications.

To meet a wide range of industrial and embedded application needs, the IMB211 supports five SATA 3.0 ports with transfer rate up to 6Gb/s and RAID 0/1/10/5 to ensure reliable data storage and protection. The motherboard offers one PCIe x16 slot, one PCIe x4 slot, one PCIe x1 slot, four PCI slots and one mSATA connector, typically required in applications such as digital video recorder, machine of service system, intelligent transmit system where a large number of peripheral cards are installed. It supports six COM ports (four RS-232 and two RS-232/422/485), two PS/2 ports, ten USB 2.0 ports, four USB 3.0 ports, dual Gigabit Ethernet and 8-channels Digital I/O (4-IN & 4-OUT). These features are packed into an ATX motherboard form factor, giving the IMB211 exceptional flexibility and an affordable total cost-of-ownership. The platform also provides reliable operation and non-stop capability with watchdog timer for system monitoring.

Ken Lin, Product Manager, Product & Marketing Division, Axiomtek, commented: “Axiomtek’s IMB211 is equipped with the latest Intel Haswell processor, supporting faster performance, rich IO and expandable slots, which is an excellent embedded solution for developers looking to fulfil multi-task applications, e.g., gaming, automation, digital signage, DVR, network computing, and much more. This industrial-grade ATX form factor embedded motherboard also supports Intel AMT 9.0 technology for remotely managing and securing PCs out-of-band.”

The IMB211 is RoHS compliant and will be available by late of April, 2014.
