Flat green PCB adapter with 90-degree M-key connector and flexible ribbon cable to PCIe slot, gold fingers visible

Fervit

Fervit M.2 NVMe M-Key 90° to PCIe X1 X4 X8 X16 Adapter Cable for 2260 2280

SKU CH-JVZZ-AEN73

Right-angled M-key adapter converts an NVMe slot to a PCIe x1, x4, x8 or x16 connection for 2260 and 2280 drives, includes dual PCBA boards and a SATA power cable

  • Fits tight M.2 slots with 90° angled M-key connector
  • Supports PCIe X1, X4, X8 and X16 cards via NVMe slot
  • Operates at PCIe 3.0, 2.0 and 1.0 speeds
  • Gold-plated contacts on high-TG PCB reduce oxidation-related crashes
  • Includes dual PCBA boards and 12V/5V SATA power cable

Right-angle M.2 NVMe adapter

The Fervit adapter converts an M-key NVMe slot into a PCIe X1, X4, X8 or X16 connector using a 90-degree plug. Two ultra-thin PCBA boards and a foldable flat cable allow installation where space around the motherboard socket is limited. A 12V/5V SATA power lead supplies auxiliary power when the cable is connected. The unit is new and does not support hot-plugging.

Builders with tight M.2 clearance

The right-angle M-key plug fits motherboards where a straight adapter would foul nearby components or heatsinks. It suits users adding a PCIe X4, X8 or X16 device such as a capture card or extra controller through an NVMe slot. Builders who need hot-plug capability or PCIe 4.0 bandwidth should look elsewhere, as the adapter tops out at PCIe 3.0 speeds and requires a powered-down system for installation.

PCIe 3.0 headroom for X4 devices

The link runs at PCIe 3.0 2.0 or 1.0 rates depending on the host M.2 interface, so an X4 device operates at up to PCIe 3.0 X4 throughput. X8 and X16 cards work but are limited to the same X4 electrical bandwidth. The adapter accepts M.2 2260 and 2280 form factors. It cannot deliver PCIe 4.0 performance regardless of the host platform.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need an M.2 M-key slot to use this adapter?

Yes, the adapter plugs into an M.2 M-key slot that supports NVMe drives, and the right-angled 90-degree connector fits even when space around the port is tight.

Will a PCIe 3.0 graphics card or other X16 device work through this adapter?

The adapter accepts PCIe X1, X4, X8 and X16 cards, but the link runs at the speed of the host M.2 interface and is limited to PCIe 3.0, 2.0 or 1.0 — it cannot operate at PCIe 4.0 speeds.

How can I confirm the adapter is working after I install it?

Power off the motherboard first, connect the included 12V/5V SATA power cable, then boot; the attached PCIe device should appear in the BIOS or operating-system device manager, confirming the link is active.
