MediaTek MT7986(Filogic 830)

The MT7986(Filogic 830) integrates four Arm Cortex-A53 cores up to 2GHz with up to 18,000 DMIPs of processing power and 6Gbps of dual 4x4 Wi-Fi6 connectivity. It has two 2.5g Ethernet interfaces and serial peripheral interfaces (SPI). Filogic 830‘s built-in hardware acceleration engine enables fast and reliable Wi-Fi offloading and wireless network connection. In addition, the chip supports Mediatek FastPath™ technology, which is suitable for games, AR/VR and other low-latency applications.

Wi-fi 6 has many advantages over its predecessors, including lower latency, larger bandwidth capacity and faster transmission rates. Wireless network devices supporting the 6GHz band mainly use 160MHz wide channel and 6GHz uncongested bandwidth to provide multigigabit transmission and low-latency wi-fi connection, providing reliable wireless network for streaming media, games, AR/VR and other applications.

4G

  • BPI-R3 can use Quectel EC25E minipcie-slot

SFP

Notice:

The SFP serdes of R3 are fixed 2.5Gbase-X, so only SFP that support this protocol can be used.

And there is no debugging insertion detection function, so there will be no prompt when inserting any SFP module.

R3-SFP-1000.png


The SFPs we have tested that work are as follows:

1. 2.5G Copper: SFP-2.5G-T-R-RM

2. 2.5G Optical Fiber: SFP-2.5G-BX0-U/SFP-2.5G-BX0-D

3. TP-LINK 2.5G Copper: TL-SM410U

4. TP-LINK 2.5G Optical Fiber: TL-SM411LSA-500m/TL-SM411LSA-500m
