ASRock Industrial NUC BOX-325 Intel Panther Lake Core Ultra 5 325 NUC Mini PC with Wi-Fi 7 and USB4

Retail counters, self-service kiosks and signage screens usually need dependable I/O, wireless links and several outputs more than they need peak graphics. The ASRock Industrial NUC BOX-325 is the Core Ultra 5 325 model of the NUC Ultra 300 BOX Series series, a fanned NUC mini PC with Wi-Fi 7, USB4 and dual 2.5GbE.

The Core Ultra 5 325 is a Panther Lake-H processor with eight cores (four performance and four low-power efficient) and Intel Graphics (Xe3). Two SO-DIMM sockets take dual-channel DDR5 6400 memory up to 128 GB, with In-Band ECC supported. Windows 11 and Linux are supported, with firmware TPM (Intel PTT) for security and a watchdog timer for unattended sites.

Two M.2 M key sockets carry NVMe storage: a four-lane PCIe Gen5 socket for 2242 or 2280 drives and a four-lane PCIe Gen4 socket for 2242 drives, with Intel VMD RAID 0/1 if you want the pair mirrored. Screens connect through two HDMI 2.1 outputs at up to 8K, DisplayPort 2.1 over USB4/Thunderbolt 4 and DisplayPort 1.4a over a second USB-C port, for four displays in total. Three USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports cover scanners and peripherals, two Intel 2.5GbE ports (I226LM and I226V) carry wired networking, and a headphone and microphone jack handles audio. The Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0 module comes fitted in the M.2 E key socket.

Power is 12 to 24 V DC through a DC jack, with AT or ATX power-on modes and a 19 V, 120 W adapter supplied. The fanned NUC is rated from 0 °C to 40 °C, stores from -40 °C to 85 °C and handles 5 to 90% non-condensing humidity, and it carries CE and FCC marks. A VESA bracket is included. We supply the NUC BOX-325 configured and tested, with memory, NVMe storage and the Windows 11 or Linux image fitted alongside the Wi-Fi 7 module. The NUC BOX-358H steps up to a Core Ultra X7 358H with Arc B390 graphics, and the iBOX-325 puts this processor in a fanless housing with a COM port.
