StarTech PCI Express to PCI Adapter Card

Discover the seamless integration of legacy technology with modern systems using the PCI Express to PCI Adapter Card. This innovative device allows you to utilize low profile PCI expansion cards in a server or desktop motherboard PCI Express slot. Fully compliant with PCI Express Specification 1.0a and PCI Specification 2.2, this adapter card ensures reliable and efficient performance.The adapter card connects through a PCIe 1x slot, providing a low profile PCI slot in its place. It includes a spare full-size bracket for PCI Express cards, making it versatile for use in larger desktop or server PCI Express slots. The unique bracket design adapts and secures the existing half-height or low profile bracket of the PCI Card, ensuring a secure and stable connection.With a PCI Express base spec 1.0a compliance, this adapter card supports up to 250MBps of available bandwidth. It also includes an LP4 Power Connector for Universal Voltage PCI Cards (3.3V/5V), making it compatible with a wide range of devices. Compliant with PCI Express to PCI/PCI-X Bridge spec 1.0, this adapter card requires no driver or software installation, offering a plug-and-play solution.This versatile adapter card converts PCIe to PCI or PCI-X, and its built-on LP4 power connector links the card to the computer power supply. This allows you to install universal voltage PCI cards (3.3V/5V), extending the usability of older or extra PCI Bus cards in newer PCIe capable systems.Ideal for use with older PCI-based cards on new PCI Express-enabled computer systems, this adapter card also allows you to install a low profile/half-height PCI card into a full profile PCI Express system. This is particularly useful for industrial and legacy PCI cards that may be hard to find or too costly to replace.The unique bracket design allows a low profile/half-height PCI card to work seamlessly in a PCI Express-based expansion slot. Backed by a 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support, this PCI Express to PCI Adapter Card offers a reliable and cost-effective solution for integrating older technology into modern systems.
