Eight USB ports for desktop expansion

The RIITOP PCET2C+6U3 adds six USB-A and two USB-C ports to a desktop PC through a single PCI Express slot. It works in x1, x4, x8 or x16 slots and supports Windows from XP through Windows 10 and Server 2019. The card uses a NEC+VIA chipset and draws power directly from the slot without an extra cable.

5 Gbps shared bandwidth across all ports

Every port can reach up to 5 Gbps, but the total bandwidth is shared across the eight ports. This handles multiple external drives, cameras or peripherals simultaneously, though sustained transfers on several ports at once will divide the available throughput. The card is backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices.

Slot-powered design with 9 A total current

The board supplies up to 9 A across all ports from the PCIe slot, so high-draw devices can run on every port together without an external power adapter. Because it uses the motherboard lane directly, connection drops common with external hubs are avoided and the primary USB lanes are not affected.

Questions about this item

Will the card run in my older PCIe 1x slot without slowing down the board's existing USB 3.0 lanes?

Yes, it fits any PCIe 1x, 4x, 8x or 16x slot and adds a dedicated 5 Gbps lane so the motherboard's own USB 3.0 bandwidth is unaffected.

How can I verify each of the 8 ports is delivering 5 Gbps after installation?

Connect a USB 3.0 flash drive, open Windows Device Manager and confirm the controller shows "SuperSpeed" at 5 Gbps, then run a large file copy to check sustained throughput.

Does the box include any power cables or brackets, or must I buy them separately?

The package contains only the expansion card itself; no extra power cable or bracket is supplied because the card draws up to 9 A total from the PCIe slot.
