PCIe 5.0 MCIO 74P Y-Cable Kit
This kit connects a 74-pin MCIO 5.0 port to two U.2 SFF-8639 drives using a 50 cm Y-cable and includes two U.2-to-M.2 adapters. It targets builders adding high-speed NVMe storage to platforms with native Gen5 MCIO headers. The adapters convert U.2 bays for M.2 NVMe modules with integrated power regulation.
Verify MCIO Pin-Count And Drive Form Factor
Confirm the host board exposes a 74-pin MCIO connector rather than the 38-pin variant before ordering. Ensure the target drives are U.2 SFF-8639 or M.2 NVMe modules compatible with the adapter's 12 V input and 3.3 V conversion circuitry. The cable length is fixed at 50 cm, so measure the internal routing path to the drive bays.
Sustained Load Protection And Power Delivery
Each adapter embeds a 5 A fuse, 400 W bidirectional TVS diodes and a synchronous buck converter that delivers up to 5.5 A continuous current at 3.3 V. Over-current, under-voltage and thermal shutdown circuits protect the SSD during prolonged heavy I/O. A 6.5 A hot-swap controller with 32 mΩ MOSFET manages inrush and reverse-current events without throttling.

Questions about this item
What comes in the kit and what must be purchased separately?
The kit includes a 50 cm MCIO 74-pin PCIe 5.0 to dual U.2 Y-cable and two U.2-to-M.2 adapter boards. M.2 NVMe drives are not included and must be bought separately.
Which cable variant should I choose for a dual-drive setup?
The supplied Y-cable splits one MCIO 74-pin host port into two U.2 connectors, so a single kit supports two drives.
What does the PCIe 5.0 rating mean once the cable is installed?
The cable and adapters are designed for PCIe 5.0 signalling, preserving Gen5 bandwidth and latency to each connected M.2 NVMe SSD.
