Single-channel Ultra320 SCSI support (on SCSI models only)

The Adaptec® AIC-7901X Ultra320 SCSI controller and single-channel SCSI connector are onboard to provide high-speed data transfers to and from SCSI hard disk drives.

Integrated graphics

The onboard ATI Rage™ XL graphics controller with 8 MB memory provides a reliable solution for server applications.

USB 2.0 technology

The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specification, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the 12Mbps bandwidth on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1.

Dual Gigabit LAN solution

The Intel® 82541GI and Intel® 82547GI Gigabit Ethernet controller allows full-duplex Gigabit performance on LAN on Motherboard (LOM) applications. Take the advantage of the Communication Streaming Architecture (CSA) with the Intel® 82547GI controller that connects to the dedicated CSA bus on the Memory Controller Hub (MCH). This reduces the PCI bottlenecks by freeing the PCI bus for other I/O operations. The Intel® 82541GI controller utilizes the PCI interface on the Southbridge to provide a faster and more efficient networking performance.

Server management

With the onboard Baseboard Management Connector (BMC) for the ASUS server management card, managing your server motherboard has never been this easy. ASUS server management cards fully conform to the IPMI1.5 or 2.0 versions.

Chassis intrusion detection

The motherboard supports chassis intrusion monitoring through the Winbond ASIC. A chassis intrusion event is retained in the CMOS for added protection.
