PCI Express to 4 Slot PCI Expansion System
StarTech ID: PEX2PCI4
StarTech.com's innovative PCI Express to PCI Expansion Chassis provides a quick and simple solution to I/O
expandability on almost any PCI Express (PCIe) enabled system. Adding external PCI slots to a
server/workstation or laptop, this cost-effective and time-saving method of simply adding additional PCI cards to
a server/workstation or providing a platform to be able to swap PCI add-in cards between a mobile and desktop
setup is the optimal method of maximizing the I/O capabilities of new or existing systems.
The external expansion chassis adds four PCI slots (32-bit/33MHz) to the host computer system, through a
single PCI Express connection. Providing total bandwidth of up to 250MBps from the x1 PCIe host controller
card, which allows the host computer to function as though the cards in the expansion chassis were connected
directly to the motherboard.
A dependable I/O expansion solution, the Expansion Chassis is backed by StarTech.com's 2-year warranty and
free lifetime technical support.
