Premio launches CT-AR701 industrial motherboard for edge AI and industrial systems
Premio has introduced the CT-AR701 ATX industrial motherboard for automation, OEM and integrator use. The AMD AM5-based board is built for edge AI, machine vision and server-class industrial workloads with EPYC and Ryzen processor support, PCIe Gen 5 expansion and dual 10GbE connectivity.
Why it matters: - The CT-AR701 is aimed at industrial systems that need more compute, faster networking and expansion headroom for edge AI and machine vision. - Premio is positioning the board as a single hardware base for on-premises AI, edge server infrastructure and custom OEM/ODM deployments. - The platform is designed to help system builders match processor choice to workload, from high-performance edge systems to server-class multi-workload installations.
What happened: - Premio announced the CT-AR701 ATX Industrial Motherboard on August 24, 2026. - The board uses AMD’s B650 chipset and AM5 platform. - The CT-AR701 supports AMD EPYC 4005/4004 server-class processors and AMD Ryzen 9000 Series processors. - Premio says the board is intended for automation engineers, OEM system builders and integrators.
The details: - The CT-AR701 supports up to 16 cores and 32 threads, depending on processor configuration. - The motherboard includes PCIe Gen 5 expansion and dual 10GbE SFP+ networking. - The board has two Broadcom 10GbE LAN ports with SFP+ and two additional GbE LAN ports. - System builders can add GPUs, AI accelerators, frame grabbers, networking cards and storage controllers. - The platform includes Premio remote management with in-band and out-of-band control for monitoring, updates, troubleshooting, recovery and hardware-level management. - The CT-AR701 supports four DDR5 UDIMM slots with up to 192GB of memory and speeds up to 5600 MT/s, depending on processor and memory configuration. - Storage options include two M.2 M key 2280 NVMe slots, one M.2 E key 2230 slot and four dual SATA 3.0 ports. - Display support includes dual independent outputs through DisplayPort and HDMI. - I/O includes six USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports, two USB 3.2 Gen 1 ports and four internal USB 2.0 ports. - Security and reliability features include TPM 2.0 and a programmable watchdog timer. - The feature list also cites support for AMD EPYC 4005/4004 and Ryzen 9000 Series desktop processors with up to 170W TDP.
Between the lines: - Premio is broadening its industrial motherboard lineup with a board that spans both edge AI and server-class industrial use cases. - Dual 10GbE plus PCIe Gen 5 suggests the CT-AR701 is built for data-heavy workloads where cameras, storage and accelerators can strain lower-bandwidth systems. - The mix of EPYC and Ryzen support gives OEMs a way to tune cost, power and performance without changing the base platform.
What's next: - Premio says the CT-AR701 is available as a configurable platform for edge computing and industrial infrastructure. - More information is available at Premio’s website. - Premio also shared social channels on LinkedIn and YouTube.
The bottom line: - The CT-AR701 is a higher-end industrial motherboard built to carry AI, vision and edge server workloads on one AM5-based platform.
