2-Port USB 3.0 PCI-Express 1X Controller

This Addonics PCI express controller is a simple and economical solution for adding the latest high speed USB 3.0 port to any Desktop computers or servers. Designed to install into any PCI-Express 1X slot, the USB 3.0 port on this controller can handle data rate up to 5 Gbps on the PCI Express 2.0 slot, 10 times the speed of USB 2.0.

To learn more detail about USB 3.0, please visit our USB 3.0 tutorial page.

  • Add two USB 3.0 ports via PCI-Express (PCIe) 1X slot
  • Maximum 5Gbits/sec*, 10 times the speed of USB 2.0
  • Supports both PCIe 1.0 and PCIe 2.0 slots
  • Includes both standard and low-profile brackets
  • Power directly from PCI-Express slot or via 15-pin SATA power connector
  • Hot swappable - drive can be removed and added without system shut down or restart
  • Capable of SuperSpeed (5 Gbps), HighSpeed (480 Mbps), FullSpeed (12 Mbps), and LowSpeed (1.5 Mbps) transaction
  • Compatible with Windows XP, Windows 2003 Server, Vista, Windows 7

* To achieve the maximum throughput, the PCI-Express slot must be version 2.0 or higher. Older Notebook with PCI-Express 1.0 will limit the speed to 2.5 Gbps. Performance per port may decrease if both ports are transferring data simultaneously due to the limited throughput of the PCI-Express slot.
