1.1 IMBA-XQ354 Motherboard Overview

Figure 1–1: IMBA-XQ354
The IMBA-XQ354 is an ATX form factor industrial PC motherboar d. The ATX form factor is
a relatively large form factor, providing room for extra features and capabilities including
IMBA-XQ354 Motherboard
more powerful processors that benefit from the larger dimensions and better cooling of
ATX computer cases.
The IMBA-XQ354 supports Intel® Core™2 Quad, Intel® Core™2 Duo and Intel®
Celeron® processors and supports up to up to 8.0 GB of DDR2 memory with up to 2.0 GB
in each memory slot.
Six SATA ports provide advanced storage capabilities with 3.0 MB/s data transfer rates.
RAID 0 support allows for increased data throughput for applications requiring quick data
access. RAID 1, 5 and 10 provide data redundancy allowing for the failure of one or more
disks without losing data.
Graphics capabilities include a VGA port on the rear panel, and a PCIe x16 graphics card
slot. The graphics card slot supports the latest graphics cards, offering rendering and
quality capable of supporting the most intensive graphics applications.
Networking is provided through two GbE controllers. The GbE controllers allow network
data speeds of up to 1.0 Gb/s, allowing for fast communication between computers on the
Page 2
network and with computers on external networks. The first LAN port supports Intel® AMT
3.0 for powerful remote management options.
Expansion capabilities include 10 USB ports, six serial ports and a parallel port.
