ASRock Industrial IMB-1251E-WV Intel Core Ultra 5 325 Industrial Mini-ITX Motherboard with ECC, Quad Display and 12-28V DC

Plenty of multi-screen and factory systems need current Intel processing, fast storage and serial I/O, but not the top graphics tier. The ASRock Industrial IMB-1251E-WV is the Core Ultra 5 325 model in the IMB-1251-WV series, an industrial Mini-ITX motherboard that keeps the full I/O of the series in a standard, space-saving Mini-ITX layout. It follows the 12th Gen Core U-series IMB-1234M.

The Core Ultra 5 325 is a Panther Lake-H processor with eight cores (four Performance and four Low Power Efficient), a 25 W rating, Intel Graphics and a built-in NPU, with AI performance rated at 47 TOPS. Two DDR5 SO-DIMM sockets run dual-channel at 6400 MHz and take up to 128 GB, with Intel In-Band ECC supported. That gives the IMB-1251E-WV room for lighter inference alongside signage, control or data-handling software. Windows 11 and Linux are supported.

Up to four displays run from two HDMI 2.1 outputs, two USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 Type-C ports with DisplayPort 1.4a and an LVDS or eDP connector. LAN is one Intel I219LM Gigabit port and one Realtek RTL8125BG 2.5GbE port. Rear USB adds one USB 3.2 Gen 2 and three USB 3.2 Gen 1, with two USB 2.0 on an internal header. For storage there are two M.2 Key M sockets, one PCIe x4 Gen5 and one PCIe x4 Gen4, plus two SATA3 ports with Intel VMD RAID 0 and 1. An M.2 Key E socket takes an optional Wi-Fi module and an M.2 Key B socket with a SIM slot takes an optional 4G or 5G module. Three internal RS-232/422/485 COM ports and four GPI and four GPO cover serial devices.

The board takes 12 to 28 V DC through a four-pin cable or the rear DC jack, and is rated from -20 °C to 70 °C operating. It carries CE and FCC marks and has a TPM header, Intel PTT and a watchdog timer. We supply the IMB-1251E-WV configured and tested, with memory, NVMe storage, any wireless modules and the OS image fitted. The IMB-1251P-WV steps up to a 16-core Core Ultra X7 358H.
