Introduction
The ASMB-976 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 Pro
-
cessor Scalable Family series processor and DDR4 ECC-REG 2400/2666/2933/
3200 MHz memory up to 2048 GB. ASMB-976 provides four PCIe x16, and seven
PCIe x8 slots in PCIe Gen4.0 high speed. In addition, the ASMB-976T2 has dual
Gigabit and dual 10GbE Ethernet LAN ports that eliminate network bottlenecks. A
fifth RJ-45 LAN connector (LAN5) is dedicated for IPMI function that allows remote
control management. One RJ-45 LAN jack (LAN 4) from 10GbE port can also be
used as IPMI LAN. High reliability and outstanding performance makes ASMB-976
the ideal platform for industrial server/networking applications.
By using the Intel C621A chipset, the ASMB-976 offers a variety of features such as
9 x USB3.2 gen1 and 1 x USB 2.0 connectivity, 10 x onboard SATA III and 2 x M.2
(SATA/PCIe x4 from PCH + PCIe x4 from CPU0) interface. The 10 x SATA ports sup
-
port software RAID 0, 1, 10 and 5 (Windows only*), and with the latest Intel RSTe
(Rapid Storage Technology Enterprise) it provides a compelling RAID solution for
NVMe SSDs via Intel VROC (Virtual RAID on Chip) HW key.
These powerful I/O capabilities ensure even more reliable data storage capabilities
and high-speed I/O peripheral connectivity.
