Raspberry Pi 5 PCIe to M.2 Adapter with PoE (C) - NVMe Support

Combine high-speed NVMe storage with Power over Ethernet in a single HAT for your Raspberry Pi 5. This adapter lets you power your Pi and connect to the network through one Ethernet cable while adding fast SSD storage—ideal for remote deployments, servers, and compact installations.

The PoE M.2 HAT+ (C) connects via the Pi 5's PCIe interface and includes a cooling fan and heatsink for reliable operation under load. The stackable GPIO header allows additional HATs to be used simultaneously.
