SKU CH-1NA6-ES04B

Replaces the ExpressCard reader slot and circuit board in Precision 4700 and 6700 laptops

  • Original Dell ExpressCard reader for Precision M4700 and M6700

Dell Precision M4700 M6700 ExpressCard Reader Board

This Dell OEM ExpressCard reader slot cage with circuit board restores the expansion slot on Precision M4700 and M6700 laptops. It is a genuine replacement part for systems that originally shipped with this reader. The component installs directly into the chassis using the existing mounting points. Buyers whose laptop never included an ExpressCard slot from the factory cannot use this part alone.

Dell Part Number X8P1N Compatibility

The Dell part number X8P1N identifies this exact reader assembly for the Precision M4700 and M6700 without a smart card reader. Matching this number to your service manual confirms the correct fit for your specific motherboard revision. No other part numbers or laptop models are supported by this component. Systems requiring a smart card reader or a different chassis generation need a separate assembly.

Passive Slot Assembly Thermals

This circuit board and cage assembly contains no active cooling, fans, or power-hungry controllers. It draws negligible power only when an ExpressCard device is inserted and active. Operation is completely silent and adds no measurable heat to the laptop interior. Thermal performance depends entirely on the host laptop's own cooling system and the card installed.
