Add four 10Gbps USB Type-C ports to a server or desktop computer through PCI Express
Expand the USB connectivity of a desktop computer or server by adding four external USB Type-C 10Gbps ports with this internal PCI Express 3.0 expansion card.
Dedicated USB Controllers
Traditional single-controller USB cards share bandwidth across all ports. With its four independent USB controllers, this USB-C expansion card enables each port to achieve up to 10Gbps, reducing bottlenecks and increasing data throughput.
USB 3.2 Gen 2 (10Gbps) Performance
The high bandwidth makes the card ideal for transferring large files, real-time editing of high-resolution photos and videos on external storage, off-loading media from mobile devices, using high-resolution video capture devices, tethered photography equipment, or high-speed USB network adapters like 10G Ethernet copper or fiber adapter.
Charge and Sync USB Devices
This USB PCI Express card can provide up to 5V 3A (15W) per USB-C port, enabling sync and charge of portable devices. If the motherboard can't supply enough power, a built-in SATA power connector can supply additional power to the card.
Compatibility
The PCI Express USB card is plug-and-play in most major operating systems, including Windows, macOS, and Linux. The card is compatible with PCI Express 3.0 and x4, x8, and x16 slots. The USB expansion card also ships with a pre-installed standard profile bracket and includes a low-profile bracket for maximum compatibility.
