A new era of work has begun with ASUS’s announcement of the all-new ASUS ExpertBook B5 laptop series (B5405/B5605), a lightweight, AI-enhanced marvel that is powered by the newest Intel Core Ultra CPUs (Series 2) with Intel vPro and integrated Intel Arc graphics. With its dedicated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) and advanced AI capabilities, the ExpertBook B5 is designed to simplify complicated business tasks and boost productivity, particularly during video calls. ASUS AI ExpertMeet, an exclusive product, provides real-time transcription for smooth collaboration as well as optimized audio and video.
ASUS ExpertGuardian, an enterprise-grade security suite that secures data, user identities, and system integrity, protects the ExpertBook B5, ideal for professionals who need performance and security. With a 15-hour battery life, this MIL-STD-810H-tested business laptop lets you work all day.
By integrating a Digital Product Passport (DPP), which offers transparent lifetime tracking and reinforces acceptable environmental practices, ASUS ExpertBook B5 further highlights ASUS’s dedication to sustainability.
Performance redefined with AI: Up to 99 total-platform TOPS and ASUS AI ExpertMeet
With a dedicated NPU that delivers 13 TOPS and up to 99 total-platform TOPSii, the ASUS ExpertBook B5 adopts cutting-edge AI for improved multitasking, performance and productivity, and security leveling. It facilitates sophisticated market analysis for well-informed financial decisions and smooth content creation with its Intel Core Ultra CPUs (Series 2). The exclusive ASUS AI ExpertMeet enhances meeting experiences with noise-canceling audio and video, AI-generated transcripts, summaries, and live-translated captions, all handled on-device to protect company data, in order to promote AI-driven workplaces.
The ExpertBook B5’s sleek, lightweight, and sturdy all-aluminum design, weighing only 1.36 kg, houses the newest AI capabilities. It guarantees speed, dependability, and versatility with up to 64GB of RAM and two SSDs providing up to 2TB of storage with RAID capabilities. B5 withstands harsh environments, requiring less maintenance and maximizing productivity for corporate efficiency. It is designed in accordance with MIL-STD-810H military requirements and follows the exacting ASUS Superior Durability Test regimen.
Uncompromising design: Ultra-detailed 2.5K, 144Hz display and ASUS ExpertCool thermals
The ExpertBook B5’s lightweight, all-aluminum frame is just one aspect of its exceptional design. Professional viewing and visual computing experiences are enhanced by its incredibly detailed 2.5K 14-inch or 16-inch panel, which has a lightning-fast 144Hz refresh rate and 400 nits of brightness. Even with prolonged use, the recently improved ASUS ExpertCool thermal solution, which is engineered for sustained performance, guarantees ideal cooling at 40W. This cutting-edge system has a mesh dust filter to preserve long-term performance and dependability, thinner heatsink fins for 26% better airflow, and fluid dynamic bearing fans for a 50% longer lifespan.
ASUS ExpertGuardian: Enterprise-grade security
Because security is a major problem for contemporary enterprises, ASUS ExpertGuardian, a unique business-focused solution security, protects ASUS ExpertBook B5. Among the features are integrated antivirus software to guard against malware and other dangers, as well as cloud recovery with factory image restoration. Together with a discrete TPM 2.0 chip, Windows 11 Secured-core PC technologies like Core Isolation and Memory Integrity strengthen OS-level security by guaranteeing encryption key protection and adherence to Trusted Computing Group (TCG) standards. Access is further protected while security risks are reduced with multi-factor authentication, which includes biometric FIDO2 login and Match-on-Chip fingerprint recognition.
Advanced protections including a dual BIOS that complies with NIST SP 800-155 and has self-recovery and rollback prevention, certificate-based authentication, and improved password policies to reduce firmware threats strengthen on-device security and hardware access protection. Secondary authentication is provided by an integrated smart card reader, and features like USB access lock and tamper detection preclude unwanted physical hardware tampering. ExpertGuardian guarantees enterprise-grade defense against changing cyberthreats and long-term device dependability with up to five years of security upgrades and BIOS protection.
Flexible configurations: Streamlined IT management
Large-scale deployment management can be challenging, but ASUS makes things easier by enabling ExpertBook B5 to be modified prior to delivery, facilitating the quick deployment of pre-configured PCs that are ready for use right away and suited to business requirements. IT teams may effectively standardize configurations with factory-integrated BIOS settings, asset tagging, laser etching, and software imaging. Additionally, B5 has a tool-free battery latch and other modular design elements that make maintenance simple and lower overall expenses and downtime. ExpertBook B5 offers a smooth, efficient, and scalable solution for contemporary IT settings, supported by enterprise-grade security from ASUS ExpertGuardian and extensive lifecycle services.
Digital Product Passport: Driving the circular economy with ASUS
Leading the way in the Digital Product Passport (DPP) revolution, ASUS is incorporating this innovative program to hasten the transition to a circular economy. ASUS DPP improves openness, traceability, and accessibility across the whole product lifecycle, from material sourcing and production to recycling and end-of-life management, by digitizing vital environmental and sustainability data. All it takes to obtain this important data is to scan the QR code attached to ASUS ExpertBook B5‘s base.
This invention gives companies, customers, and legislators access to precise, up-to-date information so they can make responsible decisions. ASUS DPP promotes environmentally responsible product design, ethical procurement, and waste reduction through improved resource efficiency, lifetime tracking, and adherence to sustainability regulations. In the end, this creates a technology ecosystem that is more accountable, transparent, and sustainable.
