AIMB-782 User Manual 21.1 IntroductionAIMB-782 motherboard is the most advanced Intel Q77 board for industrial applica-tions that require high-performance computing. The motherboard supports 2nd/3rdgeneration Intel Core i7/i5/i3/Pentium and DDR3 1333/1600 MHz memory up to 32GB. AIMB-782 provides cost-effective graphics integrated in processor which is IntelHD 2000/3000 graphics, and the graphics VRAM is 1 GB maximum shared memorywith 2 GB and above system memory installed.AIMB-782 provides a mainstream PCIe x16 gen III expansion slot for add-on graphiccards to meet higher graphics performance demand. In addition, the AIMB-782 hasdual Gigabit Ethernet LAN via dedicated PCIe x1 bus, which offers bandwidth of upto 500 MB/s, eliminating network bottlenecks. High reliability and outstanding perfor-mance make the AIMB-782 the ideal platform for industrial networking applications.By using the Intel Q77 chipset, the AIMB-782 offers four 32-bit, 33 MHz PCI slots;one PCIe x1 slot, one PCIe x4 slot, one PCIe x16 slot and a variety of features suchas 2 onboard SATA III interfaces (bandwidth = 600 MB/s) and 4 onboard SATA II withsoftware RAID; 4 USB 3.0 and 10 USB 2.0 connectors and HD Audio. These power-ful I/O capabilities ensure even more reliable data storage capabilities and high-speed I/O peripheral connectivity.The AIMB-782 also adopts Advantech’s unique patented Sleep Mode Control Circuitfor AT Power Mode. With all the excellent features and outstanding performance, theAIMB-782 is the ideal platform for today’s industrial applications.1.2 Features PCIe architecture: The Intel Q77 PCH chipset supports 1 PCIe x16 slot, 1 PCIex4 slot, 1 PCIe x1 slot, 2 SATA III and 4 SATA II connectors. High Performance I/O capability: Dual Gigabit LAN via PCIe x1 bus, 4 PCI 32-bit/33MHz PCI slots, and 14 USB 2.0 ports. Standard ATX form factor with industrial features: AIMB-782 provides indus-trial features like long product life, reliable operation under wide temperaturerange, watchdog timer functions, etc. Automatically power on after power failure: It is often necessary to have anunattended system come back to operation when power resumes after a powerfailure. Advantech’s industrial motherboard allows users to set the system topower on automatically without pushing the power on button. Please refer detail"AT" mode setting. Active Management Technology 8.0: The hardware and firmware base solu-tion is powered by the system auxiliary power plane to remotely monitor net-worked systems. Intel AMT(iAMT) stores hardware and software information innonvolatile memory. Built-in management provides out-of-band managementcapabilities, allowing remote discovery and KVM to repair systems after OS fail-ures or when a system is crashed. Alert and event logging features detect prob-lems and quickly reduce downtime, pro-actively blocking incoming threats,containing infected clients before they impact the network, and proactively noti-fying the user when critical software agents are removed. For iAMT enable,please refer 3.2.2.8 AMT Configuration. Advantech provides Software utilitycalled SUSIAccess to allow user enabling iAMT function.
