TPM 2.0 module for server platforms
The ASRock Rack TPM2-S adds a discrete Trusted Platform Module 2.0 to compatible server motherboards. It uses a Nuvoton NPCT650 controller and connects through a 17-pin header. The module measures 31.5mm by 19mm by 5.7mm.
Builders enabling BitLocker or measured boot
This module suits administrators who need hardware-based key storage and platform integrity on supported H110, X299, AM4 or TR4 platforms running Windows 8.1 or Windows 10. It is not for systems lacking a 17-pin TPM header or for environments requiring a different firmware interface.
17-pin header and TCG 2.0 compliance
The single specification that decides fit is the 17-pin connector combined with TCG PC Client Platform TPM Profile Family 2.0 compliance. Verify the motherboard header matches this pin count and profile before purchase.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the TPM2-S module is active after installing it on my motherboard?
Enter the UEFI BIOS and confirm the TPM 2.0 device appears under security settings; Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 BitLocker will then recognise the Nuvoton NPCT650 module for drive encryption.
What comes in the box and do I need any extra cables or headers?
The package contains the TPM2-S module with its 17-pin connector; no additional cables are required — simply plug it into the 17-pin TPM header on a supported H110, X299, AM4, TR4 or newer motherboard.
Which version of the TPM2-S should I choose for my platform?
There is only the single TPM2-S model with the Nuvoton NPCT650 IC and 17-pin interface; select it if your motherboard has a matching 17-pin TPM header and runs Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 BitLocker.
