Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 IO Board, a development platform and reference base-board design for CM4
Compute module 4 IO Board
The Compute Module 4 IO Board is a companion board for Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (supplied separately). It is designed for use both as a development system for Compute Module 4 and as an embedded board integrated into end products.
The IO board is designed to allow you to create systems quickly using off-theshelf parts such as HATs and PCIe cards, which might include NVMe, SATA, networking, or USB. The major user connectors are located along one side to make enclosures simple.
Compute Module 4 IO Board also provides an excellent way to prototype systems using the Compute Module 4.

| Note | ① USB 3.0 is equivalent to USB 3.2 Gen1 ② There's PoE header only on the Raspberry Pi official IO board without PoE circuit, that means additional PoE module is required for the official IO board to enable PoE feature. Unless otherwise specified, the PoE feature here stands for integrating 802.3af-compliant PoE circuit (5V/2.5A). |
