A closer look at the BPI R4 Pro board
As shown in the photos, the R4 Pro comes pre-installed with passive heatsinks that cover all of the board’s chips. The WiFi 7 NIC Module, also known as the BE14, also includes a passive heatsink that covers most of the board and likely offers some limited EMI shielding.







It is already on presale.
Yes, I know, thank you.
Hi, the main problem about the BPI R4 is its BE14 Wifi NIC (6 antennas and many shielding/noise problems).
In your pictures, we can clearly see the new BE19 NIC with 14 antennas: did you test it? Is it going to be released to the public this year? Thank you!
HI. Not yet, but from what I’ve heard, it should officially be released in a few weeks.
Thank you so much! Will you make a new post when the BE19 will be out? Did you have the R4 Pro for testing or these are just info from the company?
Not yet, but I’ll probably test the R4 Pro and the Wi-Fi expansion board and review them once both are ready and available.
For now, it’s just general news info.
