StarTech.com 4 Port USB Card, PCI Express, USB 3.2

This USB card provides additional high-speed USB connectivity to desktop systems via a PCI Express slot. Designed to expand a computer’s external ports, it integrates a modern USB 3.2 controller to support multiple peripheral connections while fitting standard PCIe card form factors. The product is intended for use in industrial and laboratory workstations where extra USB throughput and port density are required.

• Four external USB ports for increased peripheral capacity
• USB 3.2 signalling for Faster data transfers
• PCI Express bus Interface for low-latency host connectivity
• Card form factor for direct motherboard expansion
• RoHS conformity for restricted-substance compliance

• Suitable for adding multiple data-loggers to an automation PC
• Ideal for connecting USB instruments in electronics test benches
• Used with industrial control systems requiring extra ports
• Can be used for expanding desktop workstations in mechanical design suites

It interfaces over a PCI Express bus, providing direct communication with the system motherboard and minimising transfer latency.

The card supplies four USB ports, allowing integration of multiple devices such as measurement tools, sensors, or storage.

The onboard controller implements USB 3.2 signalling, enabling higher throughput compared with earlier USB revisions for Faster file transfers and device responsiveness.

It is manufactured to conform with RoHS requirements, restricting specified hazardous substances in its components.
