Overview

Introduction

PCIe TO Gigabit ETH Board (C) for Raspberry Pi 5, supports Raspberry Pi OS, is driver-free, side-mounting, and comes with an acrylic mounting plate.

Features

  • PCI-E×1 Gen2 mode.
  • Only support PI5B.
  • Network working indicator:
    • Accessing 1000M network: the green indicator keeps blinking.
    • Accessing 100M network: the yellow indicator keeps blinking.
  • Equipped with original RTL8111H high-performance controller.

Note

  • PCIE interface is not enabled on the Raspberry Pi by default.

User Guide

Hardware Connection

Pay attention to the wiring direction:

  • No need for additional power supply when using the PCIE connector by default.

User Guide

1: Enable PCIE interface:

PCIE interface is not enabled on the Raspberry Pi 5 by default, you can add the following content at /boot/firmware/config.txt:
dtparam=pciex1

2: PCIE gen2 is the default setting, if you want to enable PCIE gen3, you need to add the following content at /boot/firmware/config.txt:

dtparam=pciex1_gen=3
#Please note that the module only supports gen2, so it is the same to set Gen3 or Gen2 on the PI5, and the speed will not be improved.  

3: Reboot PI5 after modification, and the device can be recognized.

As shown below, the RTL8111 is recognized as our device, and the other PI5 is the RPI chip.

5: Use the ping command to test:

ping baidu.com -I eth1
#-I specify the Ethernet port:
