Recently, the OpenWRT LEDE development team announced that it will launch the first officially supported router hardware product "OpenWRT One AP-24." on the occasion of its 20th anniversaryxy”。The project has been in the works since the OpenWRT summits in 2017 and 2018, and the initial proposal was finalized this year. At present, the official hardware proposal has been basically finalized, and opinions from other OpenWRT developers are being sought.

SoC chose the MediaTek MT7981B processor; The Wi-Fi module uses MediaTek MT7976C (2x2 2.).4GHz + 3x3 2x2 + zero-wait DFS 5GHz) and 1GB DDR4 memory plus 128MB SPI NAND + 4MB SPI NOR flash. The Ethernet interface speed reached 25GBe+1gbe, and USB 2 is also provided0-A connector, Holtek HT42B534-2 UART to USB-C connector, and M2 2042 (PCIe Gen 2 x1) NVMe SSD storage.

In addition, the device is equipped with two LED indicators (PWM driver) and two ETH indicators (GPIO driver), and has a built-in NXP PCF8563TS (I2C) RTC module as well as a backup battery holder (CR1220). In terms of power supply, USB-PD-12V is used for USB-C (802 is optional through the RT5040 module.)3at/afpoe)。In terms of scalability, mikrobus is supported.

The enclosures of the hardware products are made from renewable materials and follow FCC, EC and RoHS certification standards. As for the ** goal, it is to strive for less than 100 US dollars (about 718 yuan). That's all for the details about this upcoming officially supported router product.
