Geekworm X1507 CM5 IO Carrier Board with Heatsink for Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 Support 1GbE/Dual M.2 NVMe SSD

Note: The Raspberry Pi CM5 board, SSD, SD card, antenna, and power supply are not included in the packing list.

Overview

The X1507 is a compact, fanless I/O carrier board for the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5 (CM5), featuring dual 2230/2242 M.2 NVMe slots and full HAT compatibility. All connectors are positioned on the top side, while the CM5 and components are mounted underneath, simplifying enclosure design.

Designed for embedded, edge, and industrial applications, the X1507 supports installation in a sealed metal case, which doubles as a heatsink. This passive cooling design transfers heat directly from the CM5 to the chassis, ensuring silent, dust-free, and reliable operation in harsh environments.

Features
