Orders ship Australia-wide from our Newcastle warehouse. Prices are in AUD and include GST. Pricing, stock and dispatch on this page are generated from the store's live catalog. Full machine-readable index: https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt # Raspberry Pi - Model B+ **Type:** Product page · **SKU:** CE07201 · **Brand:** [Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/brands/raspberry-pi-australia) **Page:** https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-model-b-plus.html ([markdown](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-model-b-plus.html.md)) The Model B+ was the final revision of the original Raspberry Pi from July 2014, it has been superseeded by multiple revisions of the Raspberry Pi board now. ## Pricing - **Price:** $69.90 (inc GST) — $63.55 AUD, exc GST - **Quantity discounts:** 6+ $61.00 (exc GST) · 12+ $59.10 (exc GST) ## Availability & dispatch - In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney). - We can dispatch 3 today; more stock is typically available with a 7–10 day lead time. ## How to buy - **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE07201:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart. - **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE07201:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.) - **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there. - **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description ### What is a Raspberry Pi? **Specifications** Compared to the Model B it has: - **More GPIO pins**. The GPIO header has grown to 40 pins, while retaining the same pinout for the first 26 pins as the Model A and B. - **More USB ports**. It comes with 4 USB 2.0 ports, compared to 2 on the Model B, and better hotplug and overcurrent behaviour. - **Micro SD**. The old friction-fit SD card socket has been replaced with a much nicer push-push micro SD version. - **100 Base Ethernet** (same as the original Model B) - **Lower power consumption**. By replacing linear regulators with switching ones we’ve reduced power consumption by between 0.5W and 1W. - **Better audio**. The audio circuit incorporates a dedicated low-noise power supply. - **Neater form factor**. We’ve aligned the USB connectors with the board edge, moved composite video onto the 3.5mm jack, and added four squarely-placed mounting holes. **Software & OS** Beginners should start with NOOBS (New Out Of Box Software) which gives the user a choice of operating system from the standard distributions. SD Cards with NOOBS Pre-installed should be available from any of our distributors and resellers globally Alternatively it is available for download [here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/) Raspberry Pi OS is the recommended operating system for normal use on a Raspberry Pi [click here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/) for basic examples to help you get started with some of the software available in Raspberry Pi OS [click here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/raspbian/) for more detail on Raspberry Pi OS [click here](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/linux/) for explanation of some fundamental Linux usage, and commands for getting around the Raspberry Pi and managing its file system and users **Compliance** The Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ has undergone extensive compliance testing, and meets the following European standards: - Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC) 2014/30/EU - Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive 2011/65/EU View and download [global compliance certificates for Raspberry Pi products](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/conformity.md). **Obsolescence Statement** Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+ will remain in production until at least January 2026 ## Guides for this product - [How to set up a PiHole on a Raspberry Pi - Block All Ads and More!](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/pi-hole-raspberry-pi/) ## Videos for this product - [How to Set Up a Pi-Hole System on a Raspberry Pi - Block Ads and More!](https://core-electronics.com.au/videos/how-to-set-up-a-pi-hole-system-on-a-raspberry-pi-block-ads-and-more) ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/c/e/ce07201-1.jpg)
