Raspberry Pi SC1966 Compute Module 5 IO Development Platform Case

The Raspberry Pi SC1753 Compute Module 5 IO Development Platform Case is a robust, precision-engineered two-piece metal enclosure designed to securely house both the Compute Module 5 and its IO Board. It offers internal space to accommodate key accessories connected to the IO Board, such as an M.2 SSD or a PoE+ HAT+, making it suitable for complex development setups and deployment in demanding environments.

This enclosure is built with functionality in mind. It includes dedicated slots for connecting CSI-2 cameras and DSI displays, allowing seamless integration of imaging and display modules. To support thermal management in high-power applications, the case features a built-in controllable fan that actively regulates internal temperatures, helping maintain system stability and performance under load.

Engineered for accessibility, the case provides cut-outs along its sides for direct access to essential interfaces including HDMI, Ethernet, USB-A, USB-C for power input, and the SD card slot. Additionally, a mounting hole is provided for attaching an external wireless antenna, enabling enhanced RF performance when needed. This enclosure is ideal for engineers looking for a reliable, thermally managed, and expandable platform for prototyping or deploying Compute Module 5-based systems.
