DFI CMS101-Q470IB Intel 10th Gen Core Thin ITX Motherboard with Q470E Chipset, Triple LAN and 12 V DC Input

Kiosks, ticket machines and signage panels are often installed in their hundreds, each built around a slim board behind the display on a 12 V supply. When an image needs updating across a fleet, remote access below the operating system saves a site visit. The CMS101-Q470IB is the Q470E build in the DFI CMS101 series of Thin ITX motherboards, with Intel vPro and AMT through its I219LM port when a vPro-capable processor is fitted.

The LGA1200 socket takes 10th Gen Intel Core i9, i7, i5 and i3 processors from four to ten cores, plus two-core Pentium and Celeron parts. The 35 W TE versions suit a sealed kiosk with limited airflow, and a 65 W Core i7 or i9 E part suits multi-screen signage. Two DDR4 2933 MHz SO-DIMMs take up to 64 GB, and Intel UHD Graphics decodes HEVC and VP9 in hardware for video playback.

Two DP++ ports at the rear and internal LVDS and eDP connectors drive up to three displays. Three RJ45 ports, 2.5GbE on Intel I225LM and GbE on the I219LM and I210AT, separate the payment or device network from the site uplink. Four rear USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports and four internal USB 2.0 connect printers, cameras and touch controllers, and two RS-232/422/485 ports, two RS-232 ports and 8-bit DIO sit on internal headers. The M.2 M-key takes NVMe at PCIe Gen3 x4 or SATA, the B-key a cellular module and the E-key Wi-Fi, with RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 and a PCIe x16 slot.

The CMS101-Q470IB runs from 12 V DC on a DC jack or 4-pin connector and operates from -5 to 65 °C, with CE, FCC, UKCA, UL, CB and RoHS compliance. Choose CMS101-W480IB to add Xeon W-1200TE processors, or CMS101-H420IB where vPro and RAID are not needed.
