Overview

Maximum scalability

Manage your workload more efficiently. This USB 3.0 card expands your computer's capabilities with seven additional USB 3.0 ports. Its innovative stacked-port format fits easily into standard and small form factor desktops.

A workhorse

The more ports you have, the more USB peripherals you can add when you need them. This robust USB 3.0 card gives you seven USB 3.0 ports ( six external and one internal) to connect your tablets, smartphones, external hard drives, CD/DVD drives, printers and other peripherals at the same time. All these ports let you leave your devices plugged in so they're always ready to use when you need them. It's also a cost-effective solution: you can plug in all these peripherals, so there's no need to buy additional hubs or cards.

Thanks to the internal USB 3.0 port, you'll be able to plug a USB device inside the computer, giving you a more convenient and secure solution.

Unique dual-profile design

This versatile dual-profile USB 3.0 card features stacked ports. This innovative configuration aims to install a large number of external ports in a compact format, making it compatible with small footprint, full-height desktop computer systems. A bracket is provided for installation in space-saving computers.

You'll be up and running in no time. The card installs automatically in Windows 8.1 and 8, with the help of the native operating system. It also provides backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and 1.x devices, so you can get the most out of your peripherals.

UASP-enhanced USB 3.0 performance

This high-performance SuperSpeed USB 3.0 card supports transfer speeds of up to 5 Gb/s as well as the UASP protocol, which can increase read speed by 70% and write speed by 40% over traditional USB 3.0 when paired with a UASP-compatible enclosure.

The card's robust build quality ensures durability and your peace of mind, even when connecting multiple peripherals.

    Ok but

    I had ordered two cards but only one was installed due to a constraint on the motherboard. On the other hand, there was no communication about the situation; I only found out about it when I unpacked the PC. On the other hand, good communication and follow-up from the after-sales service. Refund after exchange and verification with the technician who carried out the operation. It's a waste of time for everyone.

    Works very well but ??

    Yes, it works very well but it's a pain to find the right driver under WINDOWS 10 64 Bits! ! ! !
    good luck for the research and the discovery of this one ! ! ! !
    hence one star less.

    Good USB 3.0 expansion card

    I needed this card because I have several peripherals and the motherboard only has 4 USB ports. The card does the job I want it to do very well.
    I am completely satisfied.
