Advantech, a leading embedded computing solution provider introduces AIMB-585, a new industrial-grade Micro-ATX motherboard supporting the latest 6th generation Intel® Core™ I /Pentium/Celeron and E3 Xeon processors. Providing high computing and graphic performance with rigorous reliability (ex: ESD level 4 protection) and multiple expansion capability, AIMB-585 is an ideal platform for a multitude of applications in medical equipment, surveillance, gaming machines, workstations and much more. Bundled with Advantech’s own WISE-PaaS/RMM software suite that offers remote management and security features, the smart software boosts IoT applications from the edge to the cloud.

High Expandability and I/O Connectivity

AIMB-585 is equipped with multiple high speed I/O with reliable connectivity including: 12 x USB 3.0, 2 x USB 2.0, 4 x SATAIII, PCIe x16 or 2 x PCIe x8, PCIe x4, PCIe x1, and 1 x MiniPCIe (F/S x 1) supporting mSATA. It also supports 16-bit digital programmable I/O, 6 x COM (1 supportsRS-232/422/485) and a 6W audio amplifier (6W-2ch). AIMB-585 also comes with dual Gigabit Ethernet ports (Intel I219LM + I211AT) delivering up to 1000 Mbps of bandwidth for network-intensive applications. All this high speed connectivity is packed into a Micro-ATX form factor which makes AIMB-585 suitable for all kinds of high-end applications.

Enhanced Reliability & Compatible Design

AIMB-585 has a maximum of four PCI express expansion slots, and a unique PCIe x16 auto-split design. If a customer inserts a PCIe x8 card into the x8 slot, the bandwidth of the PCIe x16 slot will automatically be utilized as x8. (If a customer only installs one x16 card into the x16 slot, it will offer x16 bandwidth accordingly). This design creates more flexibility for different applications.

Moreover, AIMB-585 offers one external USB controller for two independent USB 3.0 ports onboard to help customers separate USB ports for admin and non-admin use. This ensures USB devices will not crash or run at lower speeds due to bandwidth limitations.

Excellent Graphics Performance and Strict ESD Protection & Certification

With advanced HD graphics performance, AIMB-585 Micro-ATX motherboard integrates Intel HD Graphics with DX11.1, OpenCL1.2 and OpenGL4.0 to deliver enhanced graphics performance. AIMB-585 supports three independent displays, either inclone mode or extended mode using VGA, HDMI, DisplayPort1.2, eDP and DVI-D with high 4K2K resolution for HDMI, Displayport1.2, and eDP ports. With stunning graphics and imaging, AIMB-585 is ideal for gaming and medical applications.

In addition, AIMB-585 with enhanced ESD protection design passes ElectroStatic Discharge (ESD) level 4 (contact 8kv and air 15kv) tests. For high end applications, for example medical applications, ESD level certification is an important feature to protect systems in sensitive environments.

AIMB-585 comes bundled with Advantech WISE-PaaS/RMM which provides remote device management and system recovery powered by Acronis, and system protection powered by McAfee; allowing users to easily monitor, configure, control, and even recover multiple systems through a single console from any remote site.
