Asrock Controller Intel Core Ultra Series 3 Panther Lake

The ASRock Industrial iEP-7050E Series is a fanless industrial IoT controller family built on the Intel Core Ultra X7 358H (Panther Lake-H), pairing an integrated NPU for edge AI with Intel TCC/TSN real-time networking.

The iEP-7050E Series is a rugged controller family for industrial edge computing. Powered by the Intel Core Ultra X7 358H with high-performance Intel graphics and a dedicated NPU, it supports up to 128GB DDR5 7200 with In-Band ECC and PCIe Gen5 x4 NVMe storage. Six SKUs add PoE, isolated 8DI/8DO, dual CANBus or out-of-band remote management on top of up to eight LAN ports, with M.2 slots for 5G and Wi-Fi. Dual 9-36V wide-range DC inputs, -25 to 60°C fanless operation and wall/VESA/DIN-rail mounting suit harsh factory and infrastructure deployments; the datasheet is preliminary.
