GigaIPC unleashes fresh power and versatility with its new lineup of Intel Core Ultra SBCs — the QBiP-125UB and QBiP-155UB. These 3.5-inch industrial-grade boards pack modern Meteor Lake processors and target demanding edge applications such as smart parking, medical devices, and intelligent retail systems. They center on performance, AI acceleration, and rugged, compact design.
Both boards base their architecture on Intel Core Ultra 5 or Ultra 7 Meteor Lake SoCs and aim to deliver efficient, high-performance computing within a 15 W power envelope. GigaIPC focuses on delivering performance and adaptability at the edge, balancing computational capability and power efficiency.
In a previous post, we covered the Jetway MTX-ARH1, which also features Intel Core Ultra 5 and Ultra 7 processors, but based on the Arrow Lake-H series with a 28 W TDP. We have also written about other compact and powerful SBCs, such as the Radxa Cubie A7A, StarFive VisionFive 2 Lite, Ebyte ECB31-PB, and even a Raspberry Pi Model A-sized industrial SBC. You can explore those articles if you are searching for suitable SBCs for your next project.
The QBiP-125UB and QBiP-155UB Specifications:
The QBiP-125UB uses the Intel Core Ultra 5 125U SoC, delivering 12 cores (2 performance, 8 efficient, 2 low-power), 14 threads, up to 4.3 GHz boost clock, and 12 MB of Smart Cache within a 15 W power envelope. The QBiP-155UB upgrades to the Intel Core Ultra 7 155U, maintaining the same core/thread structure but
| Model | Processor | Cores/Threads | Max Boost | Cache | TDP |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| QBiP-125UB | Intel Core Ultra 5 125U | 12C/14T | 4.3 GHz | 12 MB | 15W |
| QBiP-155UB | Intel Core Ultra 7 155U | 12C/14T | 4.8 GHz | 12 MB | 15W |
Both SBCs support up to 96 GB of DDR5-5600 memory through two SO-DIMM slots. For storage and expansion, they include dual 2.5 GbE LAN ports, SATA III, a 2280 M.2 slot (PCIe Gen4 x4/SATA), a 2230 M.2 E-Key, and a full-size Mini PCIe with SIM slot for Wi-Fi, NVMe, or cellular connectivity.
On the graphics side, the boards provide two HDMI 2.1 outputs that can drive resolutions up to 8K at 60 Hz, along with an LVDS interface with backlight control. They support triple independent display configurations, making them suitable for advanced visual applications.
In terms of connectivity, the SBCs offer four USB 3.2 Gen2 ports, four USB 2.0 headers, four COM ports (including one configurable with RI/5 V/12 V), along with a CAN bus header, GPIO/SMBus, TPM 2.0, and a 9–36 V wide input power range for flexible deployment.
The QBiP-125UB and QBiP-155UB Specifications
GigaIPC ensures strong software support within the Windows ecosystem. The SBCs work seamlessly with Windows 10/11 (x64), including IoT LTSC versions such as Windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021 (21H2) and Windows 11 IoT LTSC 2024 (24H2). To simplify deployment, GigaIPC provides a complete driver package covering LAN, audio, graphics, chipset, Serial IO, Intel platform monitoring, NPU, PMT, RST, and even serial port patches. This broad driver support enables smooth integration into industrial IoT and automation environments.
Ports
GigaIPC has not disclosed the pricing or availability of the QBiP-125UB and QBiP-155UB on its official site. However, resellers such as HSSL Technologies list both models with a “Request a Quote” option, indicating that pricing likely varies based on order volume and application. Interested buyers need to contact a reseller directly to obtain purchase details and quotations.
