Highlevel Overview
We are pleased to announce the RDK-B Broadband Annual Release for the BananaPi R4 reference platform. This marks a significant milestone — our first annual release, consolidating the journey from the Q4 2024 pre-beta board bring-up through the 2026 Q1 release into a single, comprehensive platform delivery.
Moving from quarterly releases to an annual cadence signals the platform's maturity and stability, giving operators, OEMs, and SoC partners a reliable, long-horizon foundation to plan their roadmaps and investments around.
