Intel Expands Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) AI PC Commercial Portfolio
For organisations, Intel’s extensive line of commercial AI PCs offers unparalleled performance, manageability, and security. Intel ASC (Assured Supply Chain) program introduces enhanced transparency in chip manufacturing, offering a digitally verifiable chain of custody for each processor.
With the introduction of the Intel Core Ultra 200U, 200H, 200HX, and 200S series processors in addition to the Intel Core Ultra 200V series, Intel today at MWC 2025 introduced its most potent array of commercial AI PCs yet. Businesses worldwide may now access solutions that deliver computing performance, power efficiency, connectivity, security, and manageability across desktop and mobile form factors to this extended portfolio.
Press Kit:
The new Intel Core Ultra 7 265H processor outperforms a four-year-old Intel Core i7-1185G7 processor in Cinebench 2024 by up to 2.84 times, in Procyon office productivity tests by up to 1.39 times, and in Procyon video editing tests by up to 1.97 times.
Intel vPro Fleet Services Simplifies IT Operations
Based on decades of business platform leadership, Intel vPro was created to satisfy the changing demands of IT professionals. It offers superior fleet provisioning, unparalleled defence and manageability with AI-enhanced security, premium connectivity, and remarkable device stability with 99.7% app compatibility.
By doing away with the requirement for on-premises servers, Intel vPro Fleet Services, a new hosted software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution, makes remote fleet management easier. Without requiring owned server infrastructure or additional costs for end users, it allows organisations to recover from disruptions more quickly and shortens the activation process from 24 to 6. Today marks the exclusive preview of Intel vPro Fleet Services, which will also be incorporated into Microsoft Intune.
The MITRE ATT&CK framework is the gold standard for cybersecurity operations, and Intel is still the only semiconductor manufacturer to offer hardware security verified against it.
Intel Assured Supply Chain Provides Transparency and Trust
Additionally, Intel unveiled the Intel Assured Supply Chain (ASC) initiative, which aims to give consumers more certainty and visibility into the silicon production process. By utilising a dedicated manufacturing pathway through particular production facilities, this specialised client system-on-chip (SoC) solution, which was first available on a limited number of Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) mobile and desktop SKUs, guarantees a digitally attestable chain of custody for every chip. Customers are reassured of the dependability and integrity of their silicon supply chain by this additional layer of transparency.
Accessibility
In 2025, a wide variety of commercial desktop and mobile devices are powered by Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) processors:
- Systems running the Intel vPro platform and powered by the Intel Core Ultra 200V series are now on the market.
- Late March 2025 will see the release of systems powered by the Intel Core Ultra 200U, 200H, 200HX, and 200S series.
- The broad release of Intel vPro Fleet Services is anticipated in the upcoming weeks, while it is presently under preview. Visit Intel vPro Fleet Services to find out more and sign up for the preview.
- The second half of 2025 will see the release of Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) systems with the Intel Assured Supply Chain initiative.
Intel Products Unveils Intel Assured Supply Chain Program
The program provides end users with a safe digital way to track the movement of chips through the supply chain and a silicon manufacturing corridor for Intel commercial processors.
What’s New:
Intel Products today introduced the Intel Assured Supply Chain (ASC) initiative, which aims to increase confidence and openness in the silicon production process. By utilising a dedicated chip manufacturing pathway through particular Intel manufacturing locations, this specialised client system-on-chip (SoC) solution, which was first made available on specific Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) mobile and desktop SKUs, offers a digitally attestable chain of custody of each chip’s progress through the chip manufacturing process. Through the Intel ASC program, Intel Products provides clients with further transparency on the locations of their silicon supply chain and processor manufacturing.
Why It Matters:
Maintaining the integrity of the global supply chain for semiconductors is crucial. Customers must verify the hardware’s manufacturing origin in order to prevent monetary losses, harm to their reputation, system outages, and recovery-related downtime brought on by counterfeit hardware hazards.
Intel’s leading ecosystem position, #1 Rated Product Security Assurance, and various global manufacturing capabilities make it uniquely positioned to handle supply chain risk. Intel provides more transparency and a verified silicon chain of custody with its extensive global network of manufacturing sites and solid ecosystem alliances.
How It Works:
Production and the first customer shipment are planned for later in the second half of 2025, and the initial rollout of Intel ASC will be offered on a limited number of Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) commercial mobile and desktop SKUs. The processor brand string will allow customers to verify that the processor is an Intel Assured Supply Chain processor. The Intel Assured Supply Chain SoC will display the list of nations for the Intel ASC SKU utilising industry tools and will feature the letter “A” at the end of the processor brand string.
Intel will keep collaborating with its partners to determine which product portfolios will gain the most from the Intel Assured Supply Chain initiative, with a particular emphasis on desktop and mobile PCs that are highly sought after by enterprises and government organisations. Future product options and site decisions will be influenced by market research, customer input, and manufacturing timing.
Concerning Intel’s Business PC Solution Without Compromise: The most recent addition to the powerful Intel Core Ultra Series 2 commercial processor range, which offers enterprises worldwide an unparalleled combination of compute performance, manageability, and security, is the Intel Assured Supply Chain.
Businesses don’t have to sacrifice device fleet security, manageability, or performance when using Intel’s commercial services and solutions. In addition to the Intel Core Ultra series of commercial processors, Intel recently introduced Intel vPro Fleet Services and Intel Endpoint Cloud Services to simplify fleet management and give companies the resources they need to bounce back from outages more quickly than ever before.The MITRE ATT&CK methodology is the gold standard for security operations, and Intel is still the only silicon firm in the world to offer hardware security that has been certified against it.
Future Plans The second half of 2025 will see the release of Intel Core Ultra Series 2-powered systems with the Intel Assured Supply Chain program. To learn more about Intel’s security, manageability, and commercial hardware solutions, visit the Intel for Business website.
