iBOX-225H Overview
Automation cells, retail counters and self-service kiosks often run a few screens, a serial device or two and a network link, and they rarely want a fan in the enclosure. The ASRock Industrial iBOX-225H is the Core Ultra 5 225H model of the iBOX Ultra 200 Series series, a fanless NUC PC with USB4, quad display and an RS-232/422/485 COM port.
The Core Ultra 5 225H is an Arrow Lake-H processor with 14 cores and Intel Arc 130T graphics. Two SO-DIMM sockets take dual-channel DDR5 6400 memory up to 96 GB. LAN1 supports Intel vPro Essentials, security uses firmware TPM (Intel PTT), and the iBOX-225H supports Windows 11 and Linux, with a watchdog timer that can recover a hung system without a site visit.
Displays connect through two HDMI 2.1 outputs at up to 4K, DisplayPort 2.1 over the USB4/Thunderbolt 4 port and DisplayPort 1.4a over a second USB-C port. The COM port is configurable as RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485, and there are three USB 3.2 Gen2 Type-A ports, two USB 2.0 ports, two Intel 2.5GbE ports (I226LM and I226V) and a headphone and microphone jack. Storage is two four-lane PCIe Gen4 M.2 M key sockets plus a SATA 6 Gb/s port for an internal drive, with Intel VMD RAID 0/1 across the M.2 pair. An M.2 E key socket takes an optional Wi-Fi and Bluetooth module.
Power is 12 to 24 V DC through a DC jack, with AT or ATX power-on modes and a 19 V adapter supplied. The fanless NUC is rated from -20 °C to 50 °C with 0.5 to 0.8 m/s airflow, stores from -40 °C to 85 °C and carries CE and FCC marks, with VESA, wall and DIN rail mounting (wall kit included, DIN rail kit by request). We supply the iBOX-225H configured and tested, with memory, storage, the OS image and any Wi-Fi module fitted. The iBOX-255H moves to a 16-core Core Ultra 7 255H with Arc 140T graphics, and the iBOX-325 brings a Panther Lake Core Ultra 5 325 with PCIe Gen5 storage.
