Raspberry Pi 5 is here and…we still have cables firing out of every direction of the board! Whilst it’s not a problem for most projects, those wanting an ‘all out the back’ tidy desktop vibe need something like this board to re-route ports.

We already stock a simpler version of this multifunctional adapter for just re-routing ports, however if you also want to run an NVMe SSD without adding additional hardware – this latest ‘C’ version is for you.

The Multifunctional Adapter (C) re-routes USB-C, UART (debug port) and HDMI (dual full-size HDMI) to the rear alongside the Pi’s Ethernet and USB port, whilst also providing two power input options (USB-C or 5V screw terminal) and a handy extra 5V and GND output.

However, the knockout feature is the PCIe NVMe M.2 socket, which supports 2242 or 2230 NVMe SSDs/devices. They’ve managed to pack this in to the adapter without making it much larger, making it a real compact all-in-one for your Pi 5.

The adapter comes with a PCIe cable, UART connector cable for the debug port, and a 3-pin squid cable for the 5V/GND output, and an SSD mounting screw. Raspberry Pi and SSD not included.
