The KINO-9453 Mini-ITX form factor motherboard is an Intel® dual-core CPU platform. Intel® Core™2 Duo, Core Duo and Core Solo CPU are all supported to enhance the system processing speed. The KINO-9452 has a maximum front side bus (FSB) frequency of 667 MHz and contains two DDR2 SDRAM DIMM sockets that support up to 4 GB system memory.

The KINO-9453 supports diverse displays including one VGA display, one DVI display and one LVDS display. These multimedia features make the KINO-9453 a best choice for integrating into point-of-sale (POS), kiosk or digital signage applications.

The KINO-9453 supports up to two serial ATA (SATA) hard disk drives (HDD) with maximum transfer rates of 1.5 Gb/s and up to eight USB 2.0 devices. The dual PCI Express (PCIe) Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) controllers provide GbE connectivity for network communication. The KINO-9453 also has a PCI socket for system expansion. Three RS-232, one RS-232/422/485 and one digital input/output (DIO) port offer system integrators more choices of peripheral devices for the targeted application.
