There are three models of ROCK Pi 4, model A, model B and model C. Model A is a stripped down version of model B. Model C is an enhanced version of model B. The differences are:

  • Model A vs. Model B
    • Model A doesn't have wifi/bt model(ap6256)
    • the RJ45 connector on model A doesn't support PoE
    • Model A doesn't have the 4Pin PoE header
  • Model B vs. Model C
    • Model C adds one additional mini DP port based on model B
    • Model C changes the HDMI connector from type A to type D(micro HDMI)
