The Flexible x1 PCI Express to MiniPCI Express Adapter (Adapter) was designed to convert the x1 PCI Express bus into the MiniPCI Express bus. It allows you to connect the MiniPCI Express expansion add-in board to the motherboard PCI Express connector.
The Adapter includes a MiniPCI Express adapter board (downstream), x1 PCI Express host card and PCI Express Flat cable.
The x1 PCI Express host card connects to the motherboard PCI Express connector. The PCI Express Flat cable (12 inches) is used for connecting the host card and MiniPCI Express Adapter board, and it provides a flexible connection between the MiniPCI Express expansion add-in board and the motherboard.
The power for the downstream MiniPCI Express expansion board is supplied via a MiniPCI Express connector. The MiniPCI Express Adapter has a standard 4-pin "floppy drive" power connector for receiving power from a PCI Express host card, a standard ATX power supply, or an external 5V power supply.
The MiniPCI Express Adapter board has mounting holes for its mechanical fixation inside the computer chassis (embedded computer).
The x1 PCI Express host card can be retained inside the chassis by using a unique PCI Express add-in card retainer (US Patent 7,850,475) to prevent the PCI Express host card from wiggling. This add-in card retainer can securely hold a PCI express board without using a standard bracket.
