The PCI-E expansion box (4x PCI) allows the addition of four external I/O expansion card slots to a desktop or laptop computer.
Description
The external expansion chassis allows four PCI slots (32 bit/33MHz) to be added to a host computer via a single PCI Express connection. The chassis provides a total bandwidth of up to 250 MBps from the PCIe x1 host controller card, allowing the host computer to operate as if the cards in the expansion chassis were directly connected to the motherboard. For mobile applications, the expansion chassis can be connected to an ExpressCard-enabled laptop using a connection cable(not included), which provides the same functionality as installing the expansion chassis on a laptop. This eliminates the cost and need to purchase different card adapters for the laptop.
Main features:
- Converts a single PCI Express slot into four external PCI slots without requiring a driver or installation software
- External expansion box simplifies PCI card swapping, without always having to move or isolate the desktop or server
- Allows you to expand the I/O capabilities of an existing system without having to purchase a complete new system Ideal for system testers and technicians who regularly need to change I/O cards

- Allows eight cards to be added in a small form factor system
