KALEA-INFORMATIQUE PCIe x1 to PCI 32-bit 33MHz Adapter Converter with ASM1083 Integrated Conversion Bridge, Compatible Network Cards, RS232 Serial, FireWire IEEE1394, Acquisition Cards...

Allows the installation of a traditional 32-bit PCI expansion card to a PCI Express x1, x4, x8 or x16 port on a modern motherboard that no longer has native PCI connectors. This version features reinforced capacitors for proper PCI card power. Integrates a PCI Express to PCI conversion bridge with ASM1083 chipset ensuring seamless communication with PCI devices such as network cards, RS232 serial cards, IEEE1394 FireWire cards, acquisition cards or industrial controllers. Compatibility: Motherboards equipped with PCI Express x1, x4, x8 or x16 port. 32-bit 5V PCI Expansion Cards (Do not use with 16-bit PCI card in 3.3V) Support PCI network cards, Firewire, RS232, parallel etc... Operating system independent, compatible with all Windows, Mac, Linux. Host interface: PCI Express x1 Connection between the two devices via USB3 cord. Peripheral interface: 1 x 32-bit PCI slot. Fixing by screws or use of legs provided. Power supply required in 12V (power supply not supplied, plug compatible with 2.1x5.5 or 2.5x5.5 tips. WARNINGS: 1/ Your motherboard must accept bridge type, which is not systematic. In addition, some cards that accept PCI pcie bridges will only do so with a particular type of chipset. Check with your motherboard manufacturer that this system will be compatible. Please note that this bridge will only support 32-bit PCI cards and not 16-bit PCI cards. 3/ This adapter uses a USB cable, but is not a USB adapter: you cannot connect the PCI plate to a USB port using the USB cable. 4/ Do not forget to power the adapter with a 12V/2A power supply.
