Seven-port PCIe USB 3.0 expansion

The ESTONE PCIE25A2C adds seven USB 3.0 ports to a desktop through a single PCI Express x1 slot. Two ports use USB-C connectors and five use USB-A connectors. It is aimed at users who need more front-panel connections for keyboards, mice, drives, webcams, printers or scanners. The card works with Windows 7 through 11 and Mac OS 10.8.2 or later.

5 Gbps shared bandwidth across seven ports

Each port can signal at up to 5.0 Gbps, but the x1 lane limits total throughput to that same ceiling. Everyday file copies to external hard drives or SSDs run at USB 3.0 speeds, while multiple simultaneous transfers share the available bandwidth. The card draws all power from the slot, delivering up to 5 W (5 V / 1 A) per port without an extra power cable. Very high-draw devices may exceed the per-port limit.

Independent over-current protection on every port

The board measures 4.92 by 4.06 by 1.06 inches and weighs 3.2 ounces. A low-profile bracket and standard mounting screws are included for typical case slots. Each of the seven ports has its own over-current and short-circuit guard, so a fault on one device does not affect the others. Driver installation is required on Windows; a CD is supplied and the driver is also available for download.

Questions about this item

Will this PCIE25A2C card work in a motherboard that only has PCIe 2.0 x1 slots?

Yes, the card supports PCI Express 2.0 x1 lane and is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0, 2.0 motherboards, fitting any x1 to x16 slot.

How can I verify the 5 Gbps transfer rate is active after installing the card?

Check Device Manager to confirm the Renesas or VLI USB 3.0 host controller appears without errors, then run a file transfer to a USB 3.0 flash drive and observe speeds approaching 5 Gbps.

What exactly is included in the retail package and is an external power adapter required?

The box contains the expansion card, a driver CD, installation screws and a user manual; the card draws power from the PCIe slot so no external adapter is needed.
