Expand your Raspberry Pi 5 with PCIe-based NVMe storage and Power over Ethernet functionality using the Waveshare PCIe to M.2 PoE HAT+.
This expansion board combines an M.2 NVMe SSD interface with PoE power input, making it suitable for Raspberry Pi 5 projects that need network-powered operation and additional high-speed storage.
Designed for Raspberry Pi 5, the HAT connects through the Raspberry Pi’s PCIe interface and supports IEEE 802.3af/at PoE networking. It provides a 5V output through the GPIO header and a separate 12V output through its 2-pin header.
