ASUS RS201 ROG Strix PCIe 4.0 Riser Cable 240 mm

SKU CH-C2EA-0206A

A 240 mm PCIe 4.0 x16 riser cable with a slim, flat, foldable design, EMI shielding, low-resistance PCB and reinforced SafeSlot connector for stable graphics-card mounting

  • PCIe 4.0 x16 support for full graphics bandwidth
  • Ultra-thin flat design simplifies routing in tight cases
  • SafeSlot reinforcement with metal and extra solder secures the GPU link
  • EMI shielding blocks interference that can degrade signal quality
  • Low-resistance high-frequency PCB maintains stability when folded or twisted

240 mm PCIe 4.0 x16 riser for vertical GPU mounting

The ASUS RS201 ROG Strix riser cable extends a graphics card away from the motherboard by 240 mm. It targets builders who want to showcase a GPU vertically or fit a large card into a compact chassis where direct slot insertion is impractical.

PCIe 4.0 x16 bandwidth ceiling and signal integrity

The cable supports the PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, so its practical limit is the electrical performance of that standard over a flexible medium. EMI shielding and a low-resistance PCB aim to preserve signal quality, but excessive bending or routing near noisy components can still degrade the link.

Foldable flat cable with reinforced SafeSlot

The slim, flat design folds easily for tight routing, and the patented SafeSlot ends add metal reinforcement plus extra solder points for a secure seat. Installers must avoid sharp creases that damage traces, and ensure both connectors are fully latched to prevent intermittent detection.

Questions about this item

Which length of the RS201 riser cable should I pick for my build?

The RS201 is supplied at 240 mm; choose it when that reach fits your vertical GPU mount or case layout.

What does PCIe 4.0 x16 support actually deliver once the cable is installed?

It carries the full 4.0 x16 lane width to the graphics card, so the GPU runs at its native bandwidth without down-negotiation.

How does the SafeSlot connector and EMI shielding affect the link in practice?

The reinforced SafeSlot adds metal bracing and extra solder points for a solid seat, while the shielding blocks external noise that could degrade the high-frequency signal.
