Which for normal use isn't a huge limitation, since it has no single connection greater than 2.5Gbit. But it's nice if your four port GBE switch can actually handle 4Gbits to the CPU so that the board can serve up data to all clients with no bottlenecks. The BPI R4 eliminates that bottleneck. The R4's Filogic 880 has three internal MACs. The first MAC is…
