PCIe USB 3.0 expansion card

The ESTONE PCIE22A3C adds five USB 3.0 ports to a desktop computer through a single PCI Express lane. It is aimed at users who need more Type-A and Type-C connections for peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers, external drives or VR headsets.

Fits x1 to x16 slots, no extra power

The card draws power directly from the PCI Express slot and works in x1, x4, x8 or x16 sockets compatible with PCIe 2.0 or 3.0. It supports Windows 7, 8, 10, 11 and Mac OS 10.8.2 and above, freeing up existing motherboard ports while adding three Type-C and two Type-A connectors.

Driver CD and mounting screws included

A driver disc is supplied for Windows 7 and XP installations; newer Windows and Mac versions operate without it. The package also provides installation screws and a user manual, and each port includes overcurrent and static protection for reliable operation.

Questions about this item

Does the card hit the PCIe x1 lane bandwidth ceiling before the USB 3.0 5 Gbps ports saturate?

The card uses a single PCIe lane at 3.0 or 2.0 speed, so sustained multi-port transfers are limited by that lane rather than the 5 Gbps per port rating.

How warm or noisy does the board get when all five ports run continuously?

The card draws power only from the PCIe slot with no fan; it stays silent and runs at typical slot temperatures under full load.

Which slot type and driver situation must my motherboard and OS already provide?

You need a free PCIe x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot; Windows 10, 11 or Mac OS 10.8.2+ work without extra drivers, while Windows 7 requires the supplied driver.
