Product Description
The Edatec Black CNC Aluminium Case is a fanless enclosure for the Raspberry Pi 5, built for installers who need a compact compute node running silently inside a cabinet, kiosk, or NVR housing without a fan to fail or clog with dust.
Why it fits CCTV and edge deployments
A CNC-machined aluminium body doubles as the heatsink — heat moves from the board straight into the case surface and fins, so there's no active cooling to maintain. That matters where the Pi 5 is doing edge processing, VMS front-ending, or running as a network appliance inside a switch cabinet or wall-mounted enclosure alongside recorders and PoE switches.
Build and access
- Constructed from solid CNC-machined aluminium with a black anodised coating.
- Cooling: integrated passive heatsink structure, fanless operation
- Cut-outs: precision-cut for dual micro HDMI, USB, Ethernet, power, and GPIO
- Fit: engineered specifically to the Raspberry Pi 5 board layout
Because every port is accessible through the machined cut-outs, the board can stay wired for HDMI monitoring, network uplink, and peripherals once mounted — useful when the unit ends up in a rack or plant room where re-opening the case later is inconvenient.
Choose this over a plastic Pi 5 case where the deployment runs continuously, sits in a warm cabinet, or needs to stay silent — the aluminium body carries heat away passively and gives the board mechanical protection the stock case doesn't.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this case need a fan?
No — it's a fanless design where the CNC aluminium body itself acts as the heatsink, dissipating heat from the Raspberry Pi 5 passively.
Are all of the Raspberry Pi 5 ports still reachable with this case fitted?
Yes, the case has precision cut-outs for dual micro HDMI, USB, Ethernet, power and GPIO access.
What is the case made from?
Made from solid aluminium that has been CNC-machined and finished in black anodised coating.
Is this suitable for continuous, always-on use in a cabinet or enclosure?
It's designed for embedded and industrial applications where silent, fanless operation and mechanical protection are needed.
