ASRock Industrial IMB-X1715 Intel Core Ultra 200S W880 ATX Industrial Motherboard with ECC, Dual Thunderbolt 4 and 6x COM

Machine control cabinets, vision and inspection stations and test equipment builds often need a full-size board with room for several cards, a good number of serial ports and memory that can correct its own errors. The ASRock Industrial IMB-X1715 is a W880 ATX industrial motherboard for Intel Core Ultra 200S processors, and it suits builds where ECC memory and a wide slot count both matter.

The LGA1851 socket takes Core Ultra 200S (Arrow Lake-S) processors up to 125 W, with power limits up to 252 W supported. Four DDR5 Long-DIMM slots hold up to 256 GB of ECC or non-ECC memory, at 6400 MHz with CU-DIMMs or 5600 MHz with U-DIMMs. Intel Xe graphics drive up to four displays, and the W880 chipset brings Intel vPro with AMT for remote management. Windows 11 and Linux are supported.

Expansion is two PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, running as one x16 or two x8, three PCIe 4.0 x4 slots and two PCIe 4.0 x1 slots, with support for an optional ASRock Rack PAUL card for IPMI. Two M.2 M key sockets (PCIe 5.0 x4 and PCIe 4.0 x4) and four SATA 6Gb/s ports carry storage, with Intel VMD RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10, and M.2 E key and B key sockets take optional wireless or expansion cards. The rear panel has two HDMI 2.1, one DisplayPort 1.4a, two Gigabit LAN ports (Intel I219LM with vPro and Intel I210AT), five USB 3.2 Gen 2 and a Thunderbolt 4 port, with a second Thunderbolt 4 connector inside. Six COM ports include two RS-232/422/485 at the rear and a COM3 with TTL and ccTalk modes.

The IMB-X1715 is rated from -20 °C to 70 °C, runs from an ATX supply in AT or ATX mode, and carries a TPM 2.0 and a watchdog timer. We supply it with the processor, memory and storage fitted and tested, on its own or built into a complete system. The IMB-X1715-10G adds a 10GbE port, the IMB-1715 moves to the Q870 chipset, and the IMB-X1317 brings the W880 to Micro-ATX.
