Quick Learning Wiki for Banana Pi BPI-R4 Pro

Product Overview

The Banana Pi BPI-R4 Pro is a high-performance router development board based on the MediaTek MT7988A (Filogic 880) quad-core ARM Cortex-A73 processor running at 1.8GHz, delivering approximately 30K DMIPS. It features an onboard MediaTek NPU for hardware network acceleration and tunnel offload (VLAN, PPTP, L2TP, GRE). The board is equipped with 8GB DDR4 memory, 8GB eMMC, and 256MB SPI-NAND flash. It offers an extensive set of networking interfaces including dual 10G SFP/RJ45 WAN+LAN, four 2.5G RJ45 LAN ports, and two 1G LAN ports. For wireless, it supports Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be, tri-band 2.4/5/6GHz, 320MHz, 4096-QAM) via two mPCIe slots. Expansion includes two M.2 M-Key slots for NVMe SSDs and three M.2 B-Key slots for up to three 5G modules. It supports OpenWRT 24.10 and is designed for internet service routers, Wi-Fi 7 routers, 4G/5G routers, NAS gateways, industrial communication, and smart home applications.
