AAEON MIX-MTLD1 – A industrial Meteor Lake-H/U Mini-ITX motherboard with OOB management

MIX MTLD1 Meteor Lake Mini ITX motherboard

AAEON MIX-MTLD1 is an industrial Mini-ITX motherboard supporting out-of-band (OOB) management and powered by an Intel Core Ultra Meteor Lake H/U processor (Intel Core Ultra 5 125H by default). The board supports up to 96 GB of DDR5-5600 memory, PCIe Gen 5 expansion, dual LAN, and various I/O options, including seven USB and four COM headers, and has a design fairly similar to the Jetway MTX-ARH1 released last week, with an Intel Core Ultra 5 125H or Core Ultra 7 155H SoC. What makes the MIX-MTLD1 different is the NCSI header for out-of-band (OOB) management using a MOD-RMB module, which links the Ethernet controller to a BMC for remote monitoring and control independently of the OS running on the CPU. This feature is common in servers, but more rare in industrial Mini-ITX boards, although we previously covered the DFI RPS101/RPS103 mini-ITX motherboards and HoneyComb Ryzen V3000 motherboard featuring OOB management […]
