  • Product typePCI-E
  • Product colorBlack
  • Key featuresHigh Speed NGFF
  • Extends NVMe SSDs up to 22110 form factor with 30cm cable
  • PCIe 4.0 support delivers 64Gbps data transfer for high-performance drives
  • M-key connector fits 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 slot sizes
  • Ultra-flexible PVC jacket with internal copper lines enables tight bends in compact builds
  • Works NVMe-to-NVMe or SATA-to-SATA only — no cross-protocol conversion

M-Key NVMe Extension Cable

This 30 cm M-Key male-to-female cable extends an NVMe SSD away from the motherboard socket. It fits 2230, 2242, 2260 and 2280 module lengths and carries PCIe 4.0 x4 signals. Builders who need a longer reach for tight chassis routing or custom cooling loops use it. It does not convert between NVMe and SATA protocols.

Signal Integrity Under Load

The flat copper conductors and flexible PVC jacket maintain PCIe 4.0 x4 throughput up to 64 Gbps during sustained transfers. The 75-position connector with pins 59-66 notched preserves the M-Key pinout for NVMe 1.4 operation. Cable length stays at 30 cm to limit latency and signal loss under continuous heavy I/O.

Protocol Compatibility Constraint

This cable only extends NVMe to NVMe or SATA to SATA; it cannot cross-connect the two interfaces. A 22110 module is supported at the far end, but the source socket must be 2230, 2242, 2260 or 2280. Buyers who want protocol conversion or a different keying must choose another product.

Questions about this item

Does the 30cm cable length or PCIe 4.0 rating add noticeable heat or power draw when the NVMe SSD runs continuously?

The extension is a passive 30cm copper cable with no active components, so it adds no measurable power draw or heat beyond the SSD itself.

What motherboard slot and SSD keying must I already have for this M-key male-to-female extender to work?

You need a free M-key M.2 slot (pins 59-66 notched) on the motherboard and an M-key NVMe SSD in 2230, 2242, 2260 or 2280 form factor.

Will this extender work reliably with an older PCIe 3.0 M.2 slot and a PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive?

Yes, the PCIe 4.0-rated cable is backward compatible and will run at PCIe 3.0 speeds when paired with a PCIe 3.0 motherboard slot.
