VisionTek 4 Port USB 3.0 PCIe Internal Card

VisionTek 4 Port USB 3.0 PCIe Internal Card - PCI Express - Plug-in Card - 4 USB Port(s) - 4 USB 3.0 Port(s)

The VisionTek USB 3.0 PCI Express Card allows you to connect multiple USB peripherals to your PC without the expense of replacing your motherboard.The USB 3.0 4-Port PCI Express Card enhances the performance of data transmission beyond existing USB 2.0.It is the ideal interface for transferring large amounts of data to/from USB 2.0/3.0 compliant devices such as external storage drives, HD AV streaming adapters, and much more.

The PCI Express USB 3.0 Card (with SATA Power) adds 4 external USB 3.0 ports to any PCI Express-enabled computer system with support for data rates up to 5 Gbps, while remaining backward compatible with USB 2.0 / 1.x devices.

Enhanced with UASP support (USB Attached SCSI Protocol), this USB 3.0 controller performs up to 70% faster than conventional USB 3.0 when paired with a UASP supported enclosure (Note: UASP requires a compatible operating system).

Using a more efficient protocol than the traditional USB BOT (Bulk-Only Transport), UASP technology optimizes transfers by allowing multiple commands to be processed simultaneously, significantly increasing transfer speeds for less wait time on data transfers.

The card uses a "stacked" port layout that places the ports one on top of the other, enabling all four USB 3.0 ports to be external facing, while still allowing the card to fit into a small form factor/low profile computer system using the included low profile bracket.

Plus, with a built-in SATA power connector, each USB port can provide up to 900mA of power to devices that draw power from a host bus connection (500mA for USB 2.0) by connecting to your computer power supply.
