SMUGDESK Mini PCIe to USB Riser Adapter 15/25cm FPC Cable

SKU CH-MQT2-7CQ3S

Converts a Mini PCIe slot to a USB interface using a flexible 15 cm or 25 cm FPC cable for relocating wireless modules in compact builds

  • Converts Mini PCIe slot to USB output for module relocation
  • Choice of 15 cm or 25 cm FPC cable for flexible routing
  • Ultrathin ribbon cable bends freely to fit cramped chassis
  • Compact plug-and-play board saves space in mini-ITX and embedded builds
  • Enables USB-mode Mini PCIe Wi-Fi and Bluetooth modules to work over USB bus

Mini PCIe to USB adapter for embedded DIY

This adapter converts a Mini PCIe slot into a USB bus output, letting you run Mini PCIe Wi-Fi or Bluetooth modules over USB. It is aimed at builders working on mini-ITX boards, industrial embedded hosts or small-case devices where internal space is tight. The compact PCB adds minimal bulk and requires no extra drivers for USB-compliant hardware. It suits hardware modification and module migration projects.

Check module USB support

Verify that your Mini PCIe module explicitly supports USB working mode, because this adapter does not retain native PCIe protocol. Choose the 15 cm or 25 cm FPC cable based on the distance between your slot and the desired module position. Ensure the target system has an available USB header or port for the adapter output. The ultra-thin cable bends freely but must not be creased sharply.

Low-profile design runs cool

The small circuit board draws power directly from the Mini PCIe slot and produces negligible heat during normal use. With no active cooling components, operation is completely silent. The flexible FPC ribbon routes around tight corners without blocking airflow to other components. Power consumption stays within the slot's standard USB current limits.

Questions about this item

Does the package include both the 15 cm and 25 cm FPC cables or only one length?

The adapter ships with a single FPC ribbon cable; you choose either the 15 cm or the 25 cm version when ordering, not both.

Which cable length should I pick for a typical mini‑ITX motherboard?

Measure the distance from the Mini PCIe slot to the desired module position; the 15 cm cable suits short runs while the 25 cm cable gives extra reach for larger cases.

Will a Mini PCIe Wi‑Fi card that only speaks native PCIe work through this adapter?

No — the board converts the slot to USB signalling only, so the installed module must support USB operating mode.
