DN11H9

All of the following FAQ entries also apply to these models: DN11H5, DN11H7

Please switch to RAID in the BIOS. The classic AHCI mode is not supported by the RST driver.

No, only LAN1 supports WOL (Wake on LAN).

If you look at the device from behind, it is the port on the far right.

The DN11H5 is powered by the Intel Core Ultra 5 125H processor (“Meteor Lake-H”). It features a hybrid architecture with 14 cores (4 Performance, 8 Efficient, 2 Low-Power Efficient) and supports 18 threads. Crucially, it integrates an NPU (Neural Processing Unit) branded as “Intel AI Boost” delivering approx. 11.5 TOPS dedicated AI performance (Total System AI Performance: ~34 TOPS). This allows for local AI inference (e.g., OpenVINO, Windows Studio Effects) without a dedicated GPU.

The system supports up to 96 GB of memory across two SO-DIMM slots.

• Type: DDR5-5600 (PC5-44800)
• Voltage: 1.1 V
• Configuration: Dual Channel

Note: Supports non-ECC modules only. The 96 GB capacity (2x 48 GB modules) is officially validated, making it suitable for memory-intensive virtualization or data analysis tasks.

No. Unlike many other “Slim” series models (e.g., DL-series), the DN11H5 is actively cooled. It utilizes a heatpipe cooling system with two 60mm fans (Smart Fan system) to dissipate the heat generated by the 28W TDP (Turbo power up to 115W) Meteor Lake processor. It is designed for 24/7 operation but should not be placed in environments requiring strictly sealed/passive chassis.

The chassis accommodates up to three M.2 2280 SSDs simultaneously.

• Slot 1 (M.2 2280 M-Key): PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe (supports SATA)
• Slot 2 (M.2 2280 M-Key): PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe (supports SATA)
• Slot 3 (M.2 2280 M-Key): PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe (NVMe only, no SATA)

RAID Support: Intel RST supports RAID 0, 1, and 5 for NVMe drives. RAID 0/1 is available for SATA drives (restricted to the two SATA-capable slots).

No. The DN11H5 design prioritizes M.2 density and airflow. There is no 2.5“ drive bay inside the chassis. Storage is exclusively M.2-based.

The unit features four RJ45 ports, all supporting 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet (2500 Mbps).

• Controller: 4x Intel i226-LM
• Features: Supports Wake-on-LAN (WOL), PXE Boot, and Teaming.
• Use Case: The i226-LM is ideal for virtualization hosts (Proxmox/ESXi), soft-routers (pfSense/OPNsense), or industrial gateway segmentation.

The system supports up to four independent UHD displays (4K@60Hz).

• Ports: 2x HDMI 2.1 (TMDS), 2x DisplayPort 1.4a.
• GPU: Integrated Intel Arc Graphics (7 Xe-cores, 112 EUs).
• Note: The system utilizes the HBR3 standard for DisplayPort.

No, it is a barebone system. However, a dedicated M.2 2230 E-Key slot is available for wireless modules.

• Compatibility: Supports CNVi (Intel Integrated Connectivity) and PCIe/USB-based WLAN cards (e.g., Intel AX210/BE200).
• Antennas: The chassis has pre-punched openings for external antennas (requires pigtails).

Yes. This can be configured via:

1. BIOS Setting: “Power-On after Power-Fail” option in the Power Management menu.
2. Hardware Jumper: A physical jumper on the motherboard allows forcing the system to strictly “Always On” mode, bypassing the soft-switch logic (useful for remote installations).

The approved ambient operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C (at non-condensing humidity). Recommendation: Ensure sufficient airflow around the intake/exhaust vents, especially if operating near the 50°C limit under full AI/CPU load.

The unit utilizes an external AC-to-DC power adapter.

• Output: 19V DC, 6.32A (120 Watts)
• Input: 100~240V AC
• Connector: 5.5/2.5mm barrel plug.
