MCDODO P33 M.2 NVME M-Key PoE+ Hat with Official Pi 5 Active Cooler

SKU CH-HZPX-DBXYJ

Adds M.2 NVME storage, PoE+ power up to 25.5 W and an active cooler to a Raspberry Pi 5

  • Product typeSingle Board Computers
  • Add fast NVMe storage via M.2 2230/2242/2260/2280 support
  • Power the Pi 5 through Ethernet using PoE+ 802.3 at up to 25.5 W
  • Delivers stable 5.1 V 4.5 A output for Pi 5 and peripherals
  • Official active cooler with aluminium heatsink and PWM fan keeps temperatures low
  • Single HAT combines storage, PoE+ power and cooling in one board

M.2 NVMe HAT for Raspberry Pi 5

This HAT adds an M-Key M.2 slot that accepts NVMe SSDs in 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 lengths. It connects through the PCIe interface for high-speed storage on the Raspberry Pi 5. PoE+ support lets the board draw up to 25.5 W over Ethernet using the 802.3 at protocol. An official active cooler with aluminium heatsink and PWM fan is included for thermal management.

Makers adding fast local storage to a Pi 5

The board suits builders who want NVMe speeds and a single-cable power solution via PoE+. It delivers a regulated 5.1 V at 4.5 A to the Pi 5 and attached peripherals. Buyers without PoE+ infrastructure or who prefer USB boot should look elsewhere. The note advises against connecting a USB-C power supply while the PoE+ HAT is in use.

Official active cooler and PoE+ simplify the build

The bundled cooler combines an aluminium heatsink with a PWM fan to maintain optimal temperatures under load. PoE+ eliminates the need for a separate USB-C power adapter and cable when compatible network equipment is present. The HAT accepts four common M.2 lengths so users can choose capacity without changing hardware.

Questions about this item

Do I need a Raspberry Pi 5 for this HAT to work?

Yes, the board is designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5 and includes the official active cooler that attaches directly to it.

Will a 2280 NVMe SSD fit on the M.2 slot?

The M-key slot accepts 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 length drives, so a 2280 SSD will fit and operate over the PCIe interface.

How can I verify the PoE+ power delivery is active after installation?

When the Ethernet cable supplies power under the 802.3 at protocol up to 25.5 W, the Pi 5 receives 5.1 V at 4.5 A and the PWM fan on the active cooler spins, confirming correct operation.
