Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+

The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ is a credit-card-sized single-board computer powered by a 1.4 GHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor with 1GB RAM. Add a keyboard, mouse, display, power supply, and a microSD card with your chosen Linux distribution and you have a fully functional desktop computer, media centre, or development platform.

This model adds 802.11ac dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2 with BLE, and Gigabit Ethernet (limited to 300 Mbps over USB 2.0) — a significant upgrade over the Pi 3 Model B. Power over Ethernet is supported with an optional PoE HAT.
