  • Preparation Notes
  1. To ensure optimal performance, an official Raspberry Pi 25W power supply is recommended.
  2. Other power supplies may cause the Pi 5 to limit downstream USB current.
  3. For power supplies under 25W, enable usb_max_current_enable=1. For power supplies with POE HAT, set PSU_MAX_CURRENT=5000.
