Bolton Technical PCIe 5.0 4.0 4X MCIO Host Adapter 2 in 1 accessory

PCIe 5.0 4x MCIO host adapter

This Bolton Technical adapter adds a single MCIO interface to a system through a PCIe 5.0 or 4.0 x4 slot. It transmits PCI Express signals using the 4x protocol and supports cable-to-board or card-to-board connections. The converter is designed for data-centre, networking and telecommunications equipment that use SAS, PCIe, Ethernet and other signal protocols. An optional cable can attach one NVMe U.2 SSD to the new MCIO port.

Builders expanding server or workstation I/O

Suits integrators who need to add an MCIO connector for high-speed storage or networking links in a rack or tower chassis. The card fits a standard PCIe x4 slot and provides the physical interface for MCIO cables. Not suitable for users who require multiple MCIO ports from one bracket, or for laptops and small-form-factor PCs that lack a full-size PCIe slot. Buyers without an MCIO cable or a compatible NVMe U.2 drive should source those separately.

Single MCIO port via PCIe x4

The adapter exposes exactly one MCIO female connector driven by a PCIe 5.0 or 4.0 x4 electrical link. This lone port determines how many devices can be attached — one SSD or one cable assembly — so the build plan must account for that single connection point.
