This is an industrial expansion module for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (not included), which features common interfaces such as Gigabit Ethernet, HDMI, USB, CSI and GPIO. The expansion also allows additional 4G / 5G / LoRa wireless communication modules (not included) to be connected via the M.2 or Mini-PCIe socket and sim card slot. There are also industrial interfaces including RS485, CAN and an onboard RTC.

Combined with the industrial rail-mount protection case, the module is an ideal choice for building an IoT gateway, 4G/5G router, IoT data acquisition, or even a PLC device in an industrial automatic control system and more!

Expansion base only. Does not include the CM4, power supply or M.2 B-Key LTE/LoRa module. We have stocked this base-only version to allow you to choose your wireless and power options separately.

Important Notes

  • DO NOT hot-plug any devices except the USB and HDMI
  • Please check the fan voltage before connecting the cooling fan. The board supports a 12V cooling fan by default, if you want to use a 5V cooling fan, please change the FAN_VCC resistor
  • DO NOT connect other devices while writing CM4 via Type C interface
  • 5V/2.5A or higher power supply is recommended
  • DO NOT power the board by 12V DC and the 5V Type C at the same time
  • The USB2.0 is disabled by default, you need to add the line dtoverlay=dwc2,dr_mode=host to config.txt to enable it.
