RS01 1U Rack Mount for Raspberry Pi5/4B with four RS-P11 Expansion Board for RS-P22 Raspberry Pi5

Description

The new Raspberry Pi Expansion Board RS-P11 for RS-P22 RPi5 is designed to enhance the functionality of your Raspberry Pi devices with additional interfaces and features. It is tailored for high-density Raspberry Pi clusters and offers a compact solution for advanced projects.

Features

• Dual Front Grove Interfaces: The board features two Grove interfaces on the front for easy access. One interface supports I2C protocol, and the other supports UART protocol.
• Standard Grove Compatibility: Both the I2C and UART interfaces are compatible with standard Grove modules, ensuring a wide range of expandability.
• UID Indicator Light: A front-mounted red LED serves as a UID indicator, using GPIO4, which illuminates with a high logic level for clear status indication.
• I2C and UART Standards: The interfaces are designed to be compatible with standard Grove I2C and Grove UART modules.
• 3.3V Grove Interface Level: Ensures compatibility with a broad range of Grove sensors and modules that operate at 3.3V.
• Raspberry Pi Compatibility: The board is compatible with Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+, Raspberry Pi 4B, and Raspberry Pi 5, providing flexibility for various Raspberry Pi models.
• PCIe NVMe Support: Exclusively on Raspberry Pi 5, the board supports the PCIe NVMe functionality for high-speed data storage options.
• Front Power Input: Offers a USB-C interface for front power input, making it convenient for power supply in dense cluster setups.

Caution: Do not simultaneously connect the power supply to both the Raspberry Pi's USB-C power port and the bottom expansion board's USB-C port. Doing so may damage the equipment.

• Application Scenarios: Ideal for high-density Raspberry Pi clusters where space and accessibility are crucial.
