ZDE ZP596 PCIe to M.2 E Key WiFi7 6 6E 5 PCIe to 2.5G Ethernet Network Port HAT Adapter Expansion Board for Raspberry Pi 5 Support Google TPU WiFi 7 BE200 WIFI6E AX210 MT7922 WIFI6 AX200

Features:

This expansion board adds one M.2 E-KEY interface and one 2.5GBE network port 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, one to achieve the expansion of M.2 E-KEY and the other to achieve the expansion of 2.5Gbps Ethernet through the RTL8125 chip.

The ZP596 is an adapter board with PCIe interface for WiFi7/6/6E/5, allowing Raspberry Pi 5 motherboard to use the latest WIFI7 module. The WIFI7 module can be inserted into the ZP596 adapter board via the M.2 E-KEY interface, which provides an opportunity for a wide range of Raspberry Pi 5 users to be able to use the latest WIFI7.

At present, Ubuntu supports wireless network cards of WIFI7 WIFI6(E) WIFI5, which can be used without installing drivers. The currently supported network cards include BE200, 8265C, AX200, AX210, MT7922. To use the WiFi7/6/6E/5 wireless network cards, the Raspberry Pi OS needs to install a driver, it depends on how familiar you are with the wifi driver and Raspberry Pi OS.

After power on, the Ethernet network port of the board can be automatically recognised as eth1 without installing driver under Raspberry Pi official OS system. When you use ubuntu system, you need to install the RTL8125 driver and then you can use it.

This adapter board is suitable for use with aluminum case. For aluminum enclosure, please refer to ZC506 (ASIN: B0F93SQ67G).
