Gigabit Ethernet + 3x USB 3.2 PCIe HAT+ for Raspberry Pi 5

This PCIe to Gigabit HAT+ is designed for the Raspberry Pi 5, providing an easy plug-and-play solution without needing drivers.

It extends your Pi’s capabilities by adding three USB 3.2 Gen1 ports and one Gigabit Ethernet port. It has high-performance chips for reliable and fast connections and supports various operating systems like Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu, and OpenWRT.

Additionally, it includes onboard power monitoring and EEPROM for storing product information and HAT ID. This expansion is perfect for enhancing your Raspberry Pi’s connectivity and performance.

We stock a case from Waveshare designed to fit this HAT, with cut-outs for the additional USB ports.

Note: PCIE interface is not enabled on the Raspberry Pi by default
