- The CM4-DUAL-ETH-MINI is a versatile baseboard designed specifically for use with the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4. Before use, please refer to the provided online user manual for guidance. - Ensure safe operation by only connecting or disconnecting USB devices while the baseboard is powered off. Verify the fan voltage beforehand, as only 5V fans are compatible. Note that USB 2.0 functionality is disabled by default; enable it by adding "dtoverlay=dwc2, dr_mode=host" to config.txt. - The baseboard supports a 5V DC power supply via a Type-C interface, and is equipped with dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, a single-channel USB 2.0 port, a fan interface, and a standard Raspberry Pi 40-pin connector. This configuration is ideal for applications requiring multiple network ports, such as soft routing. - The Type-C interface serves dual purposes: it can provide power or function as a USB interface for programming images (switchable via a DIP switch). To ensure stable power to the CM4 during programming, refrain from connecting additional devices when using the Type-C. Use scenarios include: 1. Setting up a home network router with enhanced connectivity options. 2. Deploying IoT applications that require multiple network connections. 3. Building a compact server for development and testing with the Raspberry Pi ecosystem. The CM4-DUAL-ETH-MINI combines performance and flexibility, making it a reliable choice for developers and tech enthusiasts alike.
