With two independent 10Gbps channels, the card makes it easy to upgrade your PC to the faster speed of USB 3.1 Gen 2 so that you can access newer peripherals at twice the speed of traditional USB 3.0 (USB 3.1 Gen 1) cards.\u003cbr\u003eFaster USB performance \u003cp\u003eWhen multiple devices are connected, traditional single-bus USB cards share your maximum bandwidth between all ports. By employing two host controller chipsets, shared across two ports rather than four, this 4-port USB 3.1 card dedicates up to 10Gbps for each set of two USB ports. It reduces performance bottlenecks and doubles your total available bandwidth to 20Gbps.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBy adding 10Gbps USB ports to your computer, you can harness the speed of USB 3.1 Gen 2 and rest assured you're ready for both current and future high-bandwidth USB-A devices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith higher data throughput support, this PCI Express USB 3.1 card is a necessity for external hard drives, hard drive enclosures, and many other USB 3.1 peripherals. Plus, the USB 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 3.1 bus-powered devices (500mA for USB 2.0). The card is ideal for use with large external storage solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e Shared bandwidth \u003cp\u003eThe 4-port USB 3.1 card features dual independent channels to your computer and shares 10Gbps of bandwidth between two USB ports.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eEach set of two ports shares a combined bandwidth of 10Gbps. If a single device is accessing the channel, the card will provide data transfer rates of up to 10Gbps to the device. If two devices are accessing the channel simultaneously, the 10Gbps of bandwidth will be shared between both devices.\u003c\/p\u003e Room for four additional devices \u003cp\u003eWith four external USB-A ports you can connect more devices to your computer. The card provides easy access to commonly-used peripherals such as your flash drive and external hard drive and allows you to connect to both current and future high-bandwidth USB-A devices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor more flexibility, you can couple the card with a USB-C to USB-A Cable (USB31AC1M) and connect your USB Type-Cƒ?› devices.\u003c\/p\u003e Compatible with older USB devices \u003cp\u003eConnecting older peripherals isn't a problem. This versatile USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gbps) card is backward compatible with legacy USB 3.0\/2.0 devices that use the common USB Type-A port, so you can eliminate the added expense and aggravation of purchasing new devices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe PEXUSB314A2V is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with Universal Serial Bus 3.1 Specification Revision 1.0, and Universal Serial Bus Specification Revision 2.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliant with UASP (USB Attached SCSI Protocol) Revision 1.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCost-effective backward compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional LP4 or SATA power connector provides up to 900mA per USB port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransfer files and access USB 3.1 devices faster, with up to 10Gbps throughput\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides four external USB 3.1 ports on two independent bus channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight (Approximate) : 79.4 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaged Quantity : 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth : 0.80\" (20.32 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackage Contents : 4-Port USB 3.1 (10Gbps) Card - 4x USB-A with Two Dedicated Channels - PCIe, 1 x Quick-start Guide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight : 3.30\" (83.82 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmentally Friendly : Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer Part Number : PEXUSB314A2V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand Name : StarTech.com\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnvironmental Certification : REACH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForm Factor : Plug-in Card\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer : StarTech.com\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlatform Supported : Linux\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Type : USB Adapter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Warranty : 2 Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Name : 4-Port USB 3.1 (10Gbps) Card - 4x USB-A with Two Dedicated Channels - PCIe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength : 4.90\" (124.46 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin : China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Startech.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50260082983186,"sku":"PEXUSB314A2V","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/9995\/7778\/files\/162004499.webp?v=1726447057","url":"https:\/\/www.ziestech.com\/products\/startech-com-4-port-usb-pcie-card-10gbps-usb-3-1-3-2-gen-2-type-a-pci-express-expansion-card-2-controllers-4xusb-windows-mac-linux-pexusb314a2v","provider":"Ziestech Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
