Two-Port USB 3.0 PCIe Card

The AcomData ADPU3-PCIX adds two external USB 3.0 ports to a desktop computer through a single PCI Express x1 slot. It delivers up to 5.0 Gbps data transfer rate and supplies DC 5 V at 900 mA per port for connected devices. The card is backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.x peripherals.

Desktop Upgraders And Legacy OS Users

This card suits owners of older Windows systems needing faster external storage or peripheral speeds without replacing the motherboard. Official driver support covers Windows XP, Vista and 7 in both 32-bit and 64-bit editions. Buyers running newer operating systems or requiring more than two ports should look at alternative solutions.

Single PCIe X1 Slot Installation

The adapter occupies one PCIe x1 slot and draws power directly from the bus, leaving other expansion slots free for graphics or networking cards. Two rear-panel USB 3.0 connectors provide immediate access for flash drives, external hard drives or docking stations. No external power cable or additional headers are required.
