Port count and connector mix

This PCIe expansion card adds seven USB 3.2 ports to a desktop computer, five of them Type-A and two Type-C. It is aimed at users who need to connect multiple peripherals such as keyboards, mice, printers, phones or game controllers at once. The card fits a single PCI Express x1 slot and works with x4, x8 or x16 slots as well.

Sustained throughput and shared bandwidth

The seven ports share a total pool of 20 Gbps, so simultaneous transfers across several devices will divide that bandwidth. Each individual port can reach 10 Gbps when used alone, but heavy multi-device workloads will see lower per-port speeds. The card draws all its power from the PCIe slot and does not require an external connector.

Driver installation and common issues

A driver must be installed before the card is recognised; the supplier provides a CD and a download link for the RENESAS/VLI USB 3.0 driver. Compatibility covers Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11 (32-bit and 64-bit), Mac OS 10.8.2 and later, and Linux. The card does not support Thunderbolt or video output, so it cannot drive a monitor.

Questions about this item

How much heat or power does the 7-port card draw when all ports run at 10 Gbps all day?

The card is powered entirely from the PCIe x1 slot and has no external power connector, so it stays within the slot’s standard 25 W limit even under full load.

What must my motherboard provide for the card to function?

A free PCI Express x1, x4, x8 or x16 slot (PCIe 2.0 or 3.0) and a Windows 7/8/10/11, Linux or macOS 10.8.2+ installation with the supplied RENESAS/VLI driver.

Will my USB 2.0 keyboard and USB 3.0 external drive work together on this card?

Yes — the seven ports support USB 3.2, 3.0 and 2.0 devices simultaneously; the 5 USB-A ports deliver up to 7.5 W each and the 2 USB-C ports up to 30 W each for charging.
