ASRock Industrial IMB-1242 Intel Bartlett Lake-S and 12th to 14th Gen Core H610 Mini-ITX SBC with Triple Display, VGA and 2.5GbE

The IMB-1242 is the H610 Mini-ITX SBC in ASRock Industrial's Bartlett Lake-S and 12th to 14th Gen Core range: DDR4 memory, triple display with HDMI, DisplayPort and VGA, GbE plus 2.5GbE and two rear COM ports. It suits signage, kiosk and machine control builds that still drive VGA screens.

  • Triple Display with VGA: HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.4a and VGA outputs at the rear drive three displays, including older VGA monitors that are often still in service on site.
  • GbE and 2.5GbE: An Intel I219V GbE port and a Realtek RTL8125BG 2.5GbE port can keep a plant network and a faster uplink on separate links.
  • Two Rear COM Ports: Two RS-232/422/485 ports on DB9 connectors at the rear connect serial devices without internal cabling or brackets.
  • DDR4 up to 64 GB: Two SO-DIMM sockets take DDR4 at 3200 MHz, up to 64 GB, a familiar memory type for long-running builds.
  • ATX or 12 V DC Power: The SBC takes either a 24+4-pin ATX supply or a 12 V DC input, in AT or ATX mode, to suit the enclosure.

IMB-1242 Overview

Signage, kiosk and machine control builds often still connect to VGA screens and a couple of serial devices, and do not always need the extras of a business chipset. The ASRock Industrial IMB-1242 is an H610 Mini-ITX SBC aimed at those jobs, taking Intel Core Series 2 (Bartlett Lake-S) and 14th, 13th and 12th Gen Core processors up to 65 W in an LGA1700 socket.

Two SO-DIMM sockets take DDR4 at 3200 MHz, up to 64 GB in total. A PCIe x16 Gen4 slot takes an add-in card, and storage comes from one M.2 Key M socket (2260 or 2280) at PCIe Gen3 x4 with SATA, plus two SATA 6Gb/s ports. Windows 11 and Linux are supported. The IMB-1242 has no onboard TPM; a TPM header takes an optional TPM module where the operating system needs one.

At the rear are HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.4a and VGA outputs for up to three displays, two USB 3.2 Gen2 and two USB 2.0 ports, mic-in and line-out audio, and two RS-232/422/485 COM ports on DB9 connectors. Networking pairs an Intel I219V GbE port with a Realtek RTL8125BG 2.5GbE port. Internal headers add two USB 3.2 Gen1 and two USB 2.0 ports, and an M.2 Key E socket takes an optional Wi-Fi module. There is a watchdog timer for unattended operation.

Power comes from a 24+4-pin ATX supply or a 12 V DC input, in AT or ATX mode. The board is rated from -20 °C to 70 °C in operation and -40 °C to 85 °C in storage, and carries CE and FCC marks. We supply the IMB-1242 with the processor, memory and storage fitted and tested, on its own or built into a complete system. The Q670 IMB-1238 steps up to DDR5, Intel vPro, four COM ports and a PCIe Gen5 slot, and the IMB-1244-WV adds a 12 to 28 V DC input with LVDS and eDP.
