This expansion board adds two 2.5GBE network ports for Raspberry Pi 5, which can meet your various needs for those who need to use Raspberry Pi 5 as a Router, Gateway, Firewall, Robot, Smart Home, NAS, VOIP, Industrial Equipment, Telecommunications Equipment and other network devices that need more than one network port.
Through the PCIe interface with PCIe Switch chip to expand into two PCIe interfaces and then through the RTL8125 chip to achieve the expansion of dual 2.5Gbps Ethernet.
After power on, the expansion board can be automatically recognised as eth1 and eth2 without installing driver under Raspberry Pi official OS system. When you use OpenWrt, you need to compile the RTL8125 driver into the firmware. When you use ubuntu system, you need to install the driver of RTL8125 and then you can use it.
PCIe to Dual 2.5G Ethernet Port HAT expansion board, able to achieve high-speed reading/writing.
Specially designed for Raspberry Pi 5, compatible with Raspberry Pi 5 8GB/4GB computer (NOT include Raspberry Pi 5).
This adapter board is suitable for use with aluminum case. Only for aluminum enclosure, please refer to ZC506 (ASIN: B0F93SQ67G). For ZP595 PCIe Peripheral Board with ZC506 aluminum case, please refer to ZP546 (ASIN: B0F93R9D2S).
