ASMB-825 User Manual 2
1.1 Introduction
The ASMB-825 serverboard is the most advanced Intel Xeon Processor Scalable
Family series board for server-grade IPC applications that require high-performance
computing power & multi-expansion slots. This serverboard supports Intel Xeon Scal-
able series processor and DDR4 ECC-REG 2133/2400/2666 MHz memory up to 192
GB. ASMB-825 provides four PCIe x16 slots and two PCIe x8 slots in Gen3.0 high
speed. In addition, the ASMB-825 full SKU has dual Gigabit and dual 10GbE Ether-
net LAN ports that eliminate network bottlenecks.
Two RJ-45 LAN jacks (one is GbE and the other one is 10GbE) can be shared with
IPMI function that allows remote control management. High reliability and outstand-
ing performance makes ASMB-825 the ideal platform for industrial server/networking
applications.
By using the Intel C621/C622 chipset, the ASMB-825 offers a variety of features such
as 6 x USB3.0 and 5 x USB 2.0 connectivity, 8 x onboard SATA III and 1 x M.2 (SATA
and PCIe) interface. It supports software RAID 0, 1, 10 and 5 (Windows only*), and
with the latest Intel RSTe (Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise) it provides compel-
ling RAID solution for NVMe SSDs via Intel VROC (Virtual RAID on CPU) HW key.
These powerful I/O capabilities ensure even more reliable data storage capabilities
and high-speed I/O peripheral connectivity.
