PCIe x8 Gen4 for M.2 NMVe Dual Port Add-in Card

The PCIe x8 Gen4 for M.2 NVMe Dual Port Add-in Card is a cutting-edge technology that offers unmatched performance and versatility for your computer system. This add-in card features an M.2 NVMe to PCI Express 4.0 conversion, providing fast and reliable data transfer rates. With two built-in M.2 M-key female connectors, you can install two NVMe SSDs in your computer, increasing storage capacity and improving data access speeds.

The card supports a bifurcated M.2 NVMe Dual Port AIC, offered in two x4 data link width configurations. However, for dual port M.2 connector functionality, both your CPU and BIOS must support it. The card supports power input from PCIe CEM +12V or external PCIe 12V AUX Power, ensuring a stable and consistent power supply to your NVMe SSDs.

The card also supports Server BMC management, providing easy and convenient control over your system. The built-in SMBus Switch (Address: 0xE2) facilitates M.2 SSD SMBus and Clock buffer SMBus communication, while the built-in SMBus I/O Expander (Address: 0x40) allows for M.2 PWRDIS control. The card supports PCIe PERST# for OOB (out of band) management to remote M.2 SSD reset and a 3.3V Power Rail for OOB (out of band) management to disable M.2 SSD power.

The card features a built-in PCIe REFCLK Buffer fan out (Address: 0xD8) for M.2 dual port, which shall be buffered and fanned out to the individual M.2 module. The built-in WAKE# Auto-Direction Sensing Between PCIe CEM and M.2 SSD and the built-in CLKREQ# Auto-Direction Sensing Between PCIe CEM and M.2 SSD provide seamless connectivity and communication between the PCIe CEM and M.2 SSD.

The card is equipped with a PWM synchronous buck converter Power IC with an 8A maximum output current, offering efficient and stable power delivery to your NVMe SSDs. The card also includes the following: * Short circuit protection. * In-rush current suppression. * Thermal shutdown protection. * ESD HBM (Human Body Mode)/2KV for improved durability and reliability.

Each M.2 port is equipped with a 5A current Load switch Power, providing protection to your M.2 NVMe SSDs. The LED1 and LED3 green LED indicate that your M.2 NVMe SSDs are powered and ready, while the LED2 and LED4 red LED blinking indicate that your M.2 SSDs are active.

The card complies with the PCI Express Base Specification Rev 4.0, PCIe_CEM_SPEC_R4_V1_0_08072019_NCB, NVM Express 1.3, SSD_Form_Factor_Version1_a, and PCI Express M.2 Specification Revision 3.0, Version 1.2, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of computer systems and storage devices. Whether you're a professional user or a casual computer enthusiast, the PCIe x8 Gen4 for M.2 NVMe Dual Port Add-in Card is an ideal solution for your storage and performance needs.
