The Banana Pi BPI-R4 Open-Source Router Board
High-Performance Networking and Wi-Fi 7 Ready Platform
The Banana Pi BPI-R4 is a high-performance open-source router development board designed for network professionals, enthusiasts, and developers seeking a powerful and customizable networking platform. At its core lies the advanced MediaTek MT7988A (Filogic 880), a quad-core ARM Cortex-A73 processor clocked at 1.8GHz. This robust CPU is paired with substantial memory, typically featuring 4GB of DDR4 RAM and 8GB of eMMC flash storage, providing a rock-solid foundation for running open-source operating systems like OpenWrt and handling demanding network traffic and applications with ease.
The BPI-R4 is built for speed and future-proofing, offering an impressive array of high-speed wired and wireless connectivity options. For wired networking, the board features an elite combination of ports, including two 10GbE SFP slots for ultra-fast fiber or copper connections, alongside four standard 1GbE network ports. On the wireless front, it supports advanced technology through two miniPCIe slots with PCIe 3.0 lanes, which are capable of accommodating high-end Wi-Fi 7 Network Interface Cards (NICs), leveraging the powerful capabilities of the Filogic 880 SoC.
To address a wide range of application needs, particularly in the context of a "4G Router Set," the BPI-R4 offers extensive expansion flexibility. It includes a dedicated M.2 KEY-B slot with a USB 3.2 interface, allowing users to integrate and utilize 4G or 5G cellular modules for mobile broadband gateway applications. Furthermore, an M.2 KEY-M slot with a PCIe 3.0 lane supports NVMe SSDs, enabling the board to function as a high-speed NAS device, home security gateway, or a specialized server for network and communication needs.
