DFI ARS101-H810 Intel LGA 1851 Core Ultra 200S Thin Mini-ITX Motherboard with H810 Chipset, Dual 2.5GbE and 12 V DC Input

Digital signage players, ticket machines and slim operator panels need a current processor and dependable graphics, but they rarely use remote management or split PCIe lanes. The ARS101-H810 is the H810 build in the DFI ARS101 series of Thin Mini-ITX motherboards, giving those designs a socketed Intel Core Ultra 200S board on a 12 V DC input.

The LGA 1851 socket takes the same eight Arrow Lake-S processors as the other builds, from the 10-core Core Ultra 5 225T at 35 W to the 24-core Core Ultra 9 285 at 65 W, so compute can be matched to the content or application rather than fixed by the board. Two DDR5 SO-DIMMs support up to 96 GB in dual channel. Integrated Intel graphics drives HDMI 1.4b and DP++ outputs at 4K, and DFI’s optional M2A module on the M.2 A-key adds an eDP, LVDS or VGA panel.

Two 2.5GbE ports on Intel I226-V controllers connect the content network and a local device. The rear panel carries three USB 3.2 Gen 1 and three USB 2.0 Type-A ports, with two more USB 2.0 headers inside, plus two RS-232/422/485 headers and 8-bit DIO. A PCIe x16 slot accepts a graphics or capture card, the M.2 M-key takes an NVMe or SATA SSD at PCIe x1, the B-key takes a cellular module with Nano SIM, and the E-key takes Wi-Fi. Two SATA 3.0 ports add bulk storage.

Power is 12 V DC on a barrel jack or 4-pin connector, and the ARS101-H810 runs from -5 to 65 °C with CE, FCC, UKCA and RoHS compliance. ARS101-Q870 adds Intel AMT, a USB-C display output and NVMe at PCIe Gen4 x4, and ARS101-W880 adds ECC memory support on top of those.
