Innocard EP7102 M.2 PCIe 5.0 ReDriver to MCIO 38P U.3 Cable 50cm

SKU CH-B4WK-N6GRE

Converts an MCIO 38P connection to M.2 PCIe 5.0 with a built-in ReDriver and clock buffer over a 50cm cable

  • Changer TypePCIe Gen4
  • Extends PCIe 5.0 signals to 32GT/s with built-in ReDriver
  • Converts MCIO 38P to M.2 PCIe 5.0 via SFF-TA-1016 standard
  • 50cm cable kit includes clock buffer for longer trace lengths
  • Hot-swappable SMBus repeater with voltage-level translation on board
  • Dual LEDs show 3.3V power ready and PERST# status

Signal Extension for PCIe 5.0

This Innocard EP7102 kit converts an M.2 PCIe 5.0 slot to an MCIO 38P connector and includes a 50cm cable to a U.3 interface. A built-in ReDriver extends 32GT/s differential signals while a clock buffer drives longer trace lengths. The assembly is designed and made in Taiwan.

Replaces Direct M.2 Mounting

The adapter replaces a direct M.2 installation when the drive must sit farther from the host board. The jump is worth it when cable routing or chassis layout prevents a native M.2 connection and PCIe 5.0 signal integrity must be maintained across the 50cm link.

Sustained Link Stability

Under sustained load the on-board ReDriver and 100MHz clock buffer preserve 32GT/s signalling across the extended path. The 3.3V load switch with reverse-current protection and the SMBus repeater with hot-swap level translation keep power and side-band signals stable during continuous operation.

Questions about this item

What M.2 slot length and MCIO connector pin count does the EP7102 adapter kit require?

The kit converts a 38-pin MCIO connector (SFF-TA-1016) to an M.2 PCIe 5.0 slot with a 50 cm cable between them.

How is the PERST# signal handled during installation, and which MCIO pin carries it?

A bidirectional voltage-level translator routes PERST# to MCIO pin A11; connect the cable so the host drives PERST# through that pin.

Which on-board LEDs show power and reset status, and what do their colours mean?

Green LED1 lit means 3.3 V is ready; red LED2 lit means PERST# is asserted, and it turns off when PERST# de-asserts normally.
