Integrated Intel® Atom C-Series FCBGA Processor
The integrated Intel® Atom C-Series FCBGA processor delivers the best performance with lower power consumption, which provides the optimal Cost/Performance ratio compared with other processors.
Mini-ITX Compact Form Factor Increases Density
As a slim size server board, the 6.7” x 6.7” Mini ITX form factor of P9A-I Series fits for various small form factor appliance servers. P9A-I Series can also be easily integrated in short depth chassis, increasing the density in a rack cabinet to provide higher computing power per rack than before.
Quad Port Gigabit Ethernet
Built with four port Marvell 88E1543 Quad PHY, the quad LAN teaming ports provide high networking bandwidth with load balance and fault tolerance functions. This design greatly reduces data processing bottlenecks during network traffic.
Friendly Front I/O Design
An accessible rear power button is reserved onboard for use as front panel ports when reversing the server board. Extra I/O LEDs indicate the system information promptly, helping customers with greater flexibility. These designs provide flexible I/O integration for users to fit in various computing environments.
M.2 (Next Generation Form Factor) Ready
P9A-I Series is equipped with the M.2 slot for an independent OS boot drive. Together with the MiniSAS and SATA 6Gb/s ports, P9A-I Series supports up to 108TB storage capacity.
Comprehensive server management: ASMB7-iKVM and ASWM Enterprise
The ASMB7-iKVM onboard enables dashboard system health monitoring, remote power on/off and control, virtual media over LAN, and management LAN fail-over support. The ASMB7 function is based on BIOS-level access, so even if the server operating system is down or offline, the KVM module can still provide round-the-clock remote monitoring and diagnosis through a user-friendly web-based graphical interface via all major browsers. ASWM Enterprise software provides one-to-multiple centralized management, including BIOS flash, remote control, and power control, all through a colorful and informative graphical interface.
