Innocard PCIe Gen4 ReDriver MCIO 38P gender changer

SKU CH-HV0P-160AK

Converts MCIO 38P to PCIe x4 Gen4 with a built-in ReDriver for 16 GT/s signal extension and integrated clock buffer, SMBus switch, and I/O expander

  • Adapter typePCIe Gen4
  • Extends PCIe 4.0 links to 16 GT/s with integrated ReDriver
  • Converts MCIO 38P to PCI Express x4 Gen4 for server BMC management
  • Operates across industrial temperature range for reliable deployment
  • Onboard clock buffer at 100 MHz drives longer cables and traces
  • Four status LEDs show AIC ready, WAKE#, CLKREQ# and PERST# signals

PCIe Gen4 ReDriver with MCIO 38P

This Innocard add-in card converts an MCIO 38P connector to a PCIe x4 Gen4 interface using a built-in ReDriver. It extends PCIe 4.0 signals at 16 GT/s across 16 differential pairs and includes a PCIe 100 MHz clock buffer for longer cable runs. LEDs indicate link status, WAKE#, CLKREQ# and PERST# signals.

Server and industrial integrators needing remote

Suits builders who require BMC support, out-of-band PERST# reset and SMBus control over extended PCIe links. Not intended for consumer desktops lacking MCIO 38P cabling or server-grade management infrastructure. Buyers without industrial temperature requirements or SMBus addressing needs should look at simpler passive adapters.

Fits a standard PCIe slot

The card draws power from the slot and provides SMBus switch, I/O expander and clock buffer addresses for firmware integration. It frees the system designer from signal-integrity limits on longer traces while preserving Gen4 bandwidth for storage or accelerator add-in cards.

Questions about this item

What slot must my motherboard provide for this PCIe x4 Gen4 add-in card to work?

The card installs in a PCI Express x4 slot that supports Gen4 signalling at 16 GT/s per lane.

Can I use this MCIO 38P gender changer with older PCIe Gen3 cables and backplanes?

The built-in ReDriver extends PCIe 4.0 links; it will also operate at Gen3 speeds, but the ReDriver settings are optimised for 16 GT/s operation.

Which LED tells me the add-in card has powered up and is ready?

LED1 glows solid green when the AIC is ready, confirming the card has completed its power-on sequence.
