Waveshare PoE IO Board with Case for Compute Module 5

This CM5 PoE IO board has 802.3af/at Power over Ethernet, which provides power and network connectivity through a single power-injected ethernet cable. It also includes a USB Type-C port for 5V/5A power supply and system image programming.

Gigabit Ethernet provides fast network connections, and the board includes two USB 3.2 Gen1 ports for fast data transfer along with two USB 2.0 ports for additional devices. Dual HDMI ports support dual 4K display output and an M.2 slot is available for NVMe SSDs giving you that flexibility with storage and expansion options.

The 40-pin GPIO header lets you easily connect to various HATs and other devices, giving you more customisation options. An SD card slot on the underside provides additional storage or system booting options. The board comes with a metal case that has precise cutouts for all the connectors, keeps the board cool with a cooling fan, along airflow vents for efficient heat dissipation and wall mount support with holes on two sides.

A UK 3-pin 27W USB-C power supply is included.
