PCIe USB 3.1 Type-C card with 19-pin riser

This PCI Express add-in card adds one external USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-C port and a 19-pin front-panel header plus a 2.4 A fast-charge connector. It uses a Renesas D720201 controller and draws auxiliary power from a SATA 15-pin plug. The bracket fits a standard full-height slot and the board weighs 200 g. Supported systems include Windows XP through 8.1 and macOS 10.8.

Builders adding front-panel Type-C to older boards

Suits enthusiasts upgrading a legacy desktop that lacks native USB 3.1 Type-C headers and wants reversible 5 Gbps connectivity with high-current charging. Not for systems without a free PCIe slot or a SATA power connector. Buyers who need more than one external Type-C port or internal 1394 headers should look elsewhere.

Single PCIe lane with Renesas D720201 controller

The card operates over one PCI Express lane using the Renesas D720201 host controller to deliver USB 3.1 Gen 1 5 Gbps signalling. This lane count and chip combination determines whether the board fits the available slot and negotiates the expected speed.

Questions about this item

What PCIe slot width does the PCE4USB-R05 need?

The card fits a standard PCI Express slot on the motherboard.

How is the 2.4A fast-charge header powered and what step is often missed?

Connect the SATA 15PIN power cable from the PSU; the card will not charge without it.

When should the Renesas D720201 master chip driver be updated?

Update the driver if the Type-C port or 19PIN header stops being recognised after an OS upgrade.
