Tarjeta de expansión ASUS IPMI EXPANSION CARD‑SI PCIe con RJ‑45 y VGA, negra/plateada

The ASUS IPMI EXPANSION CARD-SI is an internal expansion card designed to enhance server management by adding a dedicated Ethernet controller and a VGA output. It connects via a PCIe 3.0 x1 host interface and integrates the ASPEED AST2600A3 chipset to provide out-of-band management capabilities for IPMI architectures. The card is finished in a black and silver color scheme and is suitable for installation in compatible server motherboards.

Advantages

The expansion card provides a dedicated RJ-45 network port for remote management, a VGA port for local console access, and uses the ASPEED AST2600A3 chipset for stable IPMI functionality. Its PCIe 3.0 x1 interface enables easy installation in available expansion slots without requiring additional complex configuration. The compact internal design preserves server rack space while adding essential management features.

Suitable for

• Out-of-band server management and remote monitoring
• Local console access via VGA for maintenance and troubleshooting
• Systems requiring an IPMI interface on motherboards without integrated management

How to use

Power down the server and unplug it from the power source before installation. Insert the card into a free PCIe x1 (or compatible) slot on the server motherboard and secure it to the chassis. Connect the RJ-45 network cable to the Ethernet port and, if required, connect a VGA monitor to the VGA port for local console access. After re-powering the server, install or verify the IPMI firmware/driver support according to the server or motherboard vendor instructions and configure network settings for remote management.

Recommendations

Install firmware and drivers from the server or motherboard vendor to ensure compatibility with the ASPEED AST2600A3 chipset, and place the card in a PCIe slot that remains accessible for maintenance. Use secure network configurations and management VLANs when enabling remote IPMI access.
