VIA EPIA EX-Series Overview
The VIA EPIA EX-Series Mini-ITX Mainboard is an ultra compact native x86 platform optimized for today's demanding embedded and productivity applications. The mainboard is based on the VIA CX700M2 advanced all-in-one system processor featuring an embedded hardware MPEG-2, MPEG-4 and WMV9 video decoding accelerator. Its integrated VIA UniChrome™ Pro II 2D/3D graphics provide rich digital media performance. With the sizable memory bandwidth of DDR2 533MHz SDRAM DIMM and the high data transfer speeds of ATA-133 and further enhanced by support of 8-Channel High Definition Audio Codec for Smart 7.1 surround sound and SPDIF, the VIA EPIA EX-Series delivers the increased performance levels required by today’s embedded digital media applications.
The latest in high-bandwidth connectivity features two USB 2.0 ports (and the ability to support up to 2 more USB ports using the available onboard pin headers), a 1394 onboard pin header and a 10/100 Fast Ethernet port for extended broadband connectivity. The VIA EPIA EX-Series also has one PCI slot for expandability options. The VIA EPIA EX-Series is compatible with a full range of Mini-ITX chassis as well as FlexATX and MicroATX enclosures and power supplies.
The VIA EPIA EX-Series is fully compatible with Microsoft® and Linux operating systems and is available in a variety of configurations.
