Introduction

The USB4-PCIEX4S02 is USB4/Thunderbolt (20Gbps x 2) to PCIe Gen 4 docking board for multi-PCIe devices.

USB4/Thunderbolt technology enables PCIe and USB protocols encapsulated into the USB4/Thunderbolt fabric and tunneled across USB4/Thunderbolt domains.

Powered by the USB4-PCIEX4S02 and equipped with flexible PCIe port configurations via switch setting, this platform supports either one PCIe x4 or two PCIe x2/x1 devices simultaneously.

This external expansion platform accommodates demanding add-in cards, including high-performance network adapters and GPU, making it ideal for I/O expansion applications. The USB4-PCIEX4S02 requires a connection to a host computer or laptop via USB4 or Thunderbolt 3 (or later) port.
