The StarTech PEX1TO162 is a low-profile adapter designed to install a full-size PCI Express x16 card into a system with only a PCIe x1 slot. This is critical for compact or small form-factor PCs where expansion is limited, allowing you to add high-bandwidth peripherals like dedicated graphics cards or network interface cards that require an x16 physical slot but can operate within the x1 electrical lane limitations. The adapter supports a maximum data transfer rate of 2.5 Gbps, suitable for many non-GPU intensive PCIe x16 devices. Its low-profile design ensures compatibility with slim chassis systems.
This adapter is compatible with any motherboard featuring a PCI Express x1 slot. It allows the installation of any standard PCI Express x16 form-factor card, including graphics cards, network adapters, or capture cards, provided the card's electrical requirements and bandwidth demands are met by the x1 slot's 2.5 Gbps throughput. It is designed for use in systems where physical space is constrained, such as small form-factor PCs or 1U rackmount servers.
The adapter requires a 12V DC power input, which is supplied via an internal connector, to power the PCIe x16 card. Ensure your system's power supply can accommodate the additional power draw of the installed x16 card. The adapter itself is constructed from steel for durability and features a red color for easy identification. Its compact dimensions (5.0 in. L x 1.7 in. W x 0.3 in. H) are specifically for low-profile installations.
