SDRLab Flipper Zero 5G Add-On Board

  • Dual-Band Coverage — 2.4 GHz + 5 GHz (IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n); accesses modern 5 GHz networks previously unreachable with older Flipper add-ons
  • Realtek RTL8720DN via AI Thinker BW16 — industry-standard dual-band SoC with FCC/CE pre-certified module
  • Dual-Core CPU — ARM Cortex-M4 @ 200 MHz handles active protocols; Cortex-M0 @ 20 MHz runs low-power background tasks
  • Pre-flashed Marauder 5G Firmware — includes scan, deauth, beacon flood, sniff (EAPOL/PMKID), and evil portal modes; plug in and go
  • BLE 5.0 — Bluetooth Low Energy device enumeration and beacon analysis alongside Wi-Fi research
  • GPIO Powered — draws 5 V directly from Flipper Zero’s GPIO header; no external power supply needed
  • Antenna Upgrade Path — IPEX (U.FL) connector on supported revisions for attaching a high-gain external antenna
  • Firmware Ecosystem — compatible with Momentum and Unleashed custom firmware frameworks
  • PlatformIO Development — full custom firmware development support via Arduino-compatible Ameba D framework
  • Rugged Operating Range — −40°C to 85°C for field use in any climate

Use Cases
#

  • Dual-Band Wi-Fi Scanning — passively enumerate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz networks; capture SSID, BSSID, channel, RSSI, encryption type, and connected clients
  • Wi-Fi Deauthentication Research — send 802.11 deauth frames to test network resilience and evaluate 802.11w/PMF (Protected Management Frames) protection on authorized networks
  • WPA Handshake Capture — sniff EAPOL/PMKID handshakes for authorized network security auditing
  • Evil Portal Development — prototype rogue AP captive portal scenarios for phishing-awareness testing (authorized environments only)
  • Beacon Flood Testing — broadcast custom SSIDs to study RF congestion impact and client behavior
  • BLE Device Enumeration — scan and identify nearby BLE 5.0 peripherals alongside Wi-Fi research
  • Mesh Network Topology Mapping — identify mesh AP relationships, backhaul channels, and hidden SSID configurations
  • IoT Wireless Protocol Research — analyze IoT device behavior on both Wi-Fi bands in a controlled lab environment
  • Authorized Penetration Testing Education — hands-on learning platform for Wi-Fi security fundamentals in authorized environments
