PCI Express to 2 PCI & 2 PCIe Expansion Enclosure System - Full Length
StarTech ID: PEX2PCIE4L
The PEX2PCIE4L PCI/PCI Express Expansion Chassis provides a quick and simple I/O expansion solution to
almost any PCI Express (PCIe) enabled system. Adding PCI/PCIe cards to a server or workstation, or providing a
platform to swap cards between a mobile and desktop setup is a cost-effective and time-saving solution for
maximizing the I/O capabilities of your system.
The external expansion chassis adds two full-length (38cm) PCI slots (32-bit/33MHz), as well as two PCIe x1 (single-
lane) slots to a host computer through a single PCI Express connection. Providing total bandwidth up to 250MBps
from the PCIe x1 host controller card allows the computer to function as though the expansion chassis cards were
connected directly to the motherboard.
For mobile applications, the Expansion Chassis can be connected to an ExpressCard- enabled laptop using the
StarTech.com ExpressCard connection cable (EC2PCI), eliminating the added expense of purchasing different
card adapters for the laptop.
Backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.
