StarTech - PCI1224PUSB - 2 Port 12V 1 Port 24V Dual Profile PCI Powered USB Card

The PCI1224PUSB 2 Port 12V 1 Port 24V Dual Profile PCI Powered USB Card adds two 12V and one 24V Powered USB ports to any computer, through an available PCI Slot.

Drawing power from either the PCI slot or the computer power supply, the Powered USB adapter card provides up to 3A of current to each connected device, allowing for up to three Powered USB devices to be installed at a time.

Plus, this Adapter Card can be connected to StarTech.com's 2 Port 12V/24V Powered USB Adapter Card (PUSBADAP), to create two additional Powered USB ports, without using an extra PCI slot. A Full-height bracket is attached to the adapter, and a low profile/half-height bracket is included in the packaging box for small form factor systems.

Backed by a StarTech.com lifetime warranty and free lifetime technical support.
