*Model B* indicates the presence of an Ethernet port.
*Model A* indicates a lower-cost model in a smaller form factor with no Ethernet port, reduced RAM, and fewer USB ports to limit board height.

IMPORTANT: Raspberry Pi 2 Model B revisions 1.1 and 1.2 have reached End-of-Life (EoL) due to the discontinuation of the core SoC used in these products. The official EoL date was 16 October 2025. Raspberry Pi 2 Model B revision 1.3 offers the same mechanical footprint, improved thermal design, and a BCM2837B0 processor, and so is recommended for existing designs. For more information, see the official https://pip.raspberrypi.com/documents/RP-009284-PC-2[Obsolescence Notice].
