Product Description
The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ is the ultimate evolution of the Raspberry Pi 3 series, offering enhanced processing power and improved thermal management. Featuring a 1.4GHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor, it provides a stable and reliable platform for professional IoT gateways, retro gaming, and media centers. The "Plus" model introduces critical upgrades including dual-band 2.4GHz/5GHz wireless LAN, faster Ethernet, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability via a separate PoE HAT. Whether you are deploying a remote sensor node or a local server in your Pimpri workshop, the Pi 3B+ remains a favorite for its balance of power, low power consumption, and vast ecosystem of compatible accessories.
Detailed Key Features
Enhanced Thermal Control: The BCM2837B0 SoC features a heat spreader that allows the CPU to run at higher clock speeds for longer periods before thermal throttling occurs.
Dual-Band Wireless Connectivity: The 5GHz band support provides faster data rates and less interference in crowded wireless environments, making it ideal for high-definition streaming.
PoE Capability: Equipped with a 4-pin PoE header, allowing the board to be powered and networked via a single Ethernet cable (requires a Raspberry Pi PoE HAT).
Improved PXE Booting: Optimized for network and USB mass-storage booting, making it easier to manage large deployments without individual SD cards.
Modular Compliance: The wireless module comes with modular compliance certification, allowing the board to be integrated into end products with significantly reduced wireless compliance testing.
