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 design easily fits into standard and small footprint desktops.

A workhorse


The more ports you have, the more USB devices you can add if you need them. This rugged 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 of these ports allow you to leave your devices plugged in so that they are always ready to use when needed. It's also cost-effective: since you can connect all these devices, there's no need to buy additional hubs or cards.

With the internal USB 3.0 port, you'll be able to plug in 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 is designed to accommodate a large number of external ports in a compact form factor, making it compatible with small footprint, full height desktop computer systems. A bracket is provided for installation in small footprint computers.

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

USB 3.0 performance enhanced by UASP


This High Performance USB 3.0 SuperSpeed card supports transfer speeds of up to 5 Gb/s and UASP, which can increase read speeds by up to 70% and write speeds by up to 40% over traditional USB 3.0 when paired with a UASP-enabled enclosure.

The card's rugged build quality ensures durability and peace of mind, even when connecting multiple devices.

    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.
