Expand the USB Capabilities of Your System This 4 port USB 3.0 PCIe card lets you add four dedicated 5Gbps USB 3.0 ports to the internal PCI Express slot on your PCIe enabled PC. This independent port architecture improves USB 3.0 performance by transferring data on four individual channels to your computer, giving you faster transfers. Increase Performance with UASP Enhanced with UASP support (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), this PCIe to USB adapter card performs up to 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0, when paired with a UASP supported enclosure. (Note: UASP requires a compatible operating system). Maximize Your Power For high-power USB devices, this PCIe USB 3.0 card includes an optional SATA or LP4 power connector to connect to your system power supply and deliver up to 900mA of power per port to USB 3.0 bus-powered devices (500mA for USB 2.0). This USB 3.0 add on card also supports USB Battery Charging Specification 1.2 (Apple Mode only), letting you charge compatible Apple devices (iPhones and iPads) faster than using a standard USB 3.0 port. This USB 3.0 expansion card is backward compatible with existing USB 2.0 / 1.1 devices. For added versatility, the card is equipped with a standard-profile bracket and includes a low-profile (half-height) bracket for installation in small form-factor computers. This USB 3.0 PCI Express card hub is backed by a StarTech.
The card is designed for users who need additional high-speed USB ports for external storage, peripherals, or other high-bandwidth devices. It is ideal for desktop computers with available PCIe slots and can be used in both standard and compact builds due to the included low-profile bracket. The card supports a wide range of devices including external hard drives, VR headsets, game controllers, and digital equipment. It is particularly useful for professionals who require reliable and fast data transfer for tasks such as video editing or large file transfers.
The card requires a free PCIe slot on the motherboard and is compatible with most modern desktop PCs. It works with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems, though UASP support may vary depending on the OS version. The card does not include any additional software or drivers beyond what is necessary for basic operation, making it straightforward to install and use.
The design of the card is compact and built with durable materials suitable for internal use in a computer case. The included brackets allow for flexible installation options depending on the size of the case and the height of other components inside the system. The card features four independent ports that can be used simultaneously without affecting each other's performance.
The package includes the PCIe adapter card, a standard-profile bracket, a low-profile bracket, and instructions for installation. No additional power supply or external components are required beyond what is already present in most desktop systems. Users may need to purchase a SATA or LP4 power connector separately if they plan to use high-power devices.
