RE 0751+14 is a member of the class of Soft Intermediate Polars. Unlike classical Intermediate Polars, they are characterized by the presence of a soft component in their X-ray spectra, in addition to the hard component typical of these systems. The broad-band coverage of the Narrow-Field instruments on board BeppoSAX is ideal for the study of such objects. Here we report the preliminary results of the analysis of a BeppoSAX pointing to RE 0751+14. Both components are clearly detected, and their temperature determined (~50 eV and ~40 keV), enabling the possibility of studying them simultaneously.
