SAPPHIRE EDGE IPC-FP6 Motherboard Features AMD Ryzen Embedded V2000 CPU with 10GbE Ethernet

A few months back SAPPHIRE launched the EDGE IPC-FP6, a mini-ITX Motherboard with AMD Ryzen Embedded V2000 SoC and support for 10GbE Ethernet.

The motherboard features four DisplayPort outputs for 4K displays, M.2 sockets for both storage and wireless modules, two SATA ports for additional storage, up to eight USB ports, a PCIe x8 expansion slot, and a combined audio jack. With all these features this board can be used for applications like gaming machines, medical imaging, digital signage, thin clients, and POS terminals.

Previously we have covered many similar SBCs like the IBASE IB961, Banana Pi BPI-M7, Hummingboard 8P Edge Ai, Radxa ROCK 5A Pink Edition, and many other SBCs feel free to check those out if you are interested in the topic.

The SAPPHIRE IPC-FP6 board offers varied cooling solutions for 15W and 45W Ryzen V2000 processors. It supports Windows 10 64-bit and Ubuntu 20.04.1 64-bit operating systems.

The board first came to our attention through cnx-software, and in his post, he mentions,

That’s a bit old, but that’s because the IPC-FP6 Ryzen V2000 motherboard appears to have been introduced in 2021 or 2022 after the company launched the FS-FP6 mini-STX motherboard with similar features. But I was only made aware of the IPC-FP6 a few days ago and decided to write about it since there may not be that many mini-ITX motherboards with 10GbE (and gigabit Ethernet) ports around.

Released years ago for commercial use, this mini-ITX motherboard isn’t sold to consumers. For pricing, contact SAPPHIRE or distributors. Details are on the product page.
