Owners manual

Now you can easily add a variety of types and speeds (generations) of USB ports to your desktop or server,
using a single adapter card. The card features:
One external USB-C port (USB 3.1 Gen 2 - 10Gbps)
Two external USB-A ports (USB 3.1 Gen 1 - 5Gbps)
Two internal USB-A motherboard header ports (USB 3.1 Gen 1 - 5Gbps)
With a range of port types, the card lets you bridge the gap between older and newer devices that use different
connectors. You can simultaneously connect and access USB Type-A and USB Type-C devices, while using
only a single PCI Express expansion slot.
By adding three types of USB ports in one combo card, you can free up space in your PC case, and eliminate
the nuisance of having different cards for different USB devices.
Ideal for building or upgrading your computer
With two internal motherboard-style headers, this dynamic USB 3.1 card is perfect for upgrading or building your
own computer. If your existing headers are occupied, or if you don’t have any motherboard headers, you can
connect front panel hubs or card readers using this versatile alternative to costly motherboard or computer
upgrades.
Connect your older USB devices
Connecting your older peripherals isn’t a problem. This 5-port USB 3.1 card is backward compatible with legacy
USB 3.0 and 2.0 devices, so you can eliminate the added expense and aggravation of purchasing new devices.
(USB 3.0 is also known USB 3.1 Gen 1).
The PEXUSB312EIC is backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
Note: The card does not support DP alt mode or USB Power Delivery.

Install the card as a vital hardware component when building a PC, or upgrade an older PCIe based
desktop from USB 3.0 or 2.0 to USB 3.1 Gen 2 (10Gbps)
