I agree that the product seems niche. There's practically nothing on their website on the marketing side - from searching around the details are pretty much limited to the support pages. I can't really speak to future stuff like an AST2700-based design though, who knows. A couple of numbers turned up that might be helpful: 1. The Quick Start Guide[1] seems to use "E21524", which is also used by some random blog[2] to identify it.=C2=A0 2. There's "R1.04" on the silkscreen.=C2=A0 Perhaps we could incorporate either of those? * asus,e21524-ipmi-expansion-card * asus,ipmi-expansion-card-r1-04 However, they're not without some risk: 1. It's hard to tell whether E21524 is properly representative 2. R1.04 may also problematic as an AST2700-based card will likely restart the numbering and risk a collision Otherwise, I guess there's: * asus,ipmi-expansion-card-ast2600 Andrew [1]: https://www.asus.com/us/supportonly/ipmi%20expansion%20card/helpdesk_m= anual/ [2]: https://blog.liaosirui.com/%E7%B3%BB%E7%BB%9F%E8%BF%90%E7%BB%B4/A.%E6%= 9C%8D%E5%8A%A1%E5%99%A8/%E5%B9%B3%E5%8F%B0%E7%AE%A1%E7%90%86/BMC%E5%BA%95%E= 6%9D%BF%E7%AE%A1%E7%90%86%E6%8E%A7%E5%88%B6%E5%99%A8/IPMI%E8%BF%9C%E7%A8%8B= %E7%AE%A1%E7%90%86%E5%8D%A1.html
