M.2 (A+E Key) to Gigabit Ethernet Module for LattePanda Alpha and Delta

This M.2 expansion module adds a dedicated Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 port to your LattePanda Alpha or Delta single-board computer. Powered by the Realtek RTL8111F controller, it provides self-adaptive 10/100/1000Mbps wired networking for multi-NIC builds, firewalls, and soft routing. It is an ideal addition for makers and developers needing reliable, high-speed network expansion in a compact form factor.

Gigabit network port expansion

The module converts an M.2 A+E Key slot into a full-speed RJ45 Ethernet port supporting 10/100/1000Mbps self-adaptive data rates. It features a 2.5Gb/s M.2 transmission interface, making it well-suited for network port expansion and soft routing applications.

Realtek RTL8111F onboard controller

Built around the Realtek RTL8111F chipset, this adapter delivers stable data transmission with a low power consumption of just 1.2W. It also includes an automatic auxiliary power detection function to configure power management registers automatically.

Wide operating system support

The board is compatible with a wide range of host environments, including 32-bit and 64-bit Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and VMware ESXi.

Extensive networking standard support

The controller adheres to key IEEE standards, including IEEE 802.3u, IEEE 802.3ab, IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, IEEE 802.3x flow control, and IEEE 802.3az energy-efficient Ethernet.

Compact dimensions and operating range

Measuring 30 x 22 x 1.5 mm, this lightweight module functions in operating temperatures between 0°C and 55°C with 10% to 90% non-condensing relative humidity.
