Description

StarTech EPS48ADAP ATX 12V P4 + LP4 to EPS 8-pin PSU Adapter

Overview

The StarTech EPS48ADAP is a power supply adapter designed to bridge the gap between older power supply units (PSUs) and modern motherboards or components requiring an 8-pin EPS connector. This adapter is particularly useful when upgrading a system or integrating new hardware into an existing chassis that might have an older ATX 12V P4 and LP4 power output from the PSU. It allows you to repurpose existing power supplies, avoiding the need for a complete PSU replacement in scenarios where the existing unit has sufficient wattage but lacks the correct connector. This is common in surveillance system builds or industrial PC integrations where component lifecycles may not align perfectly.

Compatibility

This adapter accepts one standard ATX 12V P4 (4-pin) power connector and one LP4 (4-pin) power connector from the PSU. It converts these inputs to a single 8-pin ATX 12V EPS (CPU) power connector. Ensure your power supply has both a P4 and an LP4 output available. This adapter is designed for use with motherboards or components that specifically require the 8-pin EPS connector for CPU power delivery. It is not intended for graphics card power connections, which typically use different PCIe power connectors.

Installation Notes

Connect the 4-pin ATX 12V P4 connector and the 4-pin LP4 connector from your power supply to the corresponding inputs on the EPS48ADAP. Then, connect the 8-pin EPS output from the adapter to the CPU power socket on your motherboard. Ensure all connections are firm and fully seated. The adapter itself is 6 inches long, providing adequate reach in most standard PC cases. It draws power directly from the connected PSU cables; no external power source is required.
