KF548S38IB-16 Kingston 1x16GB DDR5 Unbuffered SO-DIMM RAM

High-Performance DDR5 SO-DIMM Memory Expansion engineered for compact compute with the KF548S38IB-16

The KF548S38IB-16 is a 16GB DDR5-4800 SO-DIMM designed for notebook platforms and small form factor systems where memory bandwidth and power efficiency directly influence CPU throughput. By moving client and edge compute to DDR5, the KF548S38IB-16 supports modern Intel and AMD mobile generations that rely on higher transfer rates to reduce stall time in multi-threaded compilation, analytics, and virtualized desktop workloads.

As an unbuffered, non-ECC 262-pin SO-DIMM, the KF548S38IB-16 integrates cleanly into dense platforms with limited thermal and Z-height budgets, while maintaining JEDEC 4800 MT/s operation at 1.1V. Its single-rank x8 organization is well-suited for balanced access patterns, improving responsiveness for PCIe-attached NVMe storage pipelines and iGPU-enabled workflows where memory is shared. Intel XMP support enables controlled configuration on compatible systems to align memory timing with platform firmware policies and stability requirements.

Why Choose the KF548S38IB-16?

The KF548S38IB-16 delivers a practical density-to-performance step for fleet upgrades, enabling higher concurrent workload capacity without changing the compute node footprint. For enterprise rollouts, it provides predictable DDR5 behavior, straightforward one-module scaling, and consistent integration into serviceable SFF and mobile endpoints where downtime and validation cycles must remain low.

Kingston designs its memory around qualification discipline and traceable manufacturing, targeting long-term operational reliability in modern data centre and edge standards. The product approach emphasizes compatibility, controlled electrical characteristics, and repeatable performance across procurement cycles.

Key Applications:

• Notebook and SFF memory upgrades
• Edge and embedded compute nodes
• VDI endpoints and thin-client class systems
• General-purpose client compute
• Light workstation workloads
