Radxa Zero 3E: Affordable Single-Board Computer with Ethernet, No WiFi

Radxa has unveiled a new single-board computer called the Radxa Zero 3E, which is similar to its previously released Radxa Zero 3W model but with a few key differences. Unlike the 3W, the 3E does not support WiFi and Bluetooth but instead features a Gigabit Ethernet port. This means that users can expect a more reliable network connection and faster speeds, as the 3E supports 1 Gbps speeds compared to the 3W’s limited 802.11n speeds of up to 450 Mbps. However, the inclusion of the Ethernet port means that the 3E does not have a wireless chip or optional onboard eMMC storage.

Radxa Zero 3E:

  • Processor: Rockchip RK3566 with 4 x Cortex-A55 @ 1.6 GHz and Mali-G52-2EE GPU
  • Memory: 1GB / 2GB / 4GB / 8GB LPDDR4
  • Storage: microSD card reader
  • Connectivity: 1 x Gigabit Ethernet port with PoE support (PoE HAT required)
