1U PCIe 4.0 x16 Riser for Right-Side Slot
The Supermicro RSC-WR-6 is a riser card designed for 1U server chassis. It provides a single PCIe 4.0 x16 slot oriented to the right side of the system. This accessory targets integrators building dense compute or storage nodes that require a full-length add-in card in a low-profile enclosure.
PCIe 4.0 x16 Electrical and Physical Limits
The riser delivers a PCIe 4.0 x16 link, so bandwidth scales with the host processor and chipset capabilities. Card length is restricted by the 1U form factor and chassis depth. Power delivery follows the PCIe specification for the slot type; auxiliary power connectors on the add-in card must be reachable from the system power supply.
Right-Side Mounting and Build Considerations
The right-side orientation determines cable routing and airflow patterns inside the chassis. Builders must verify that the bracket aligns with the specific Supermicro chassis model. The printed circuit board uses standard server-grade materials to handle signal integrity at PCIe 4.0 speeds. No additional mounting hardware is included beyond the riser itself.

Questions about this item
Should I choose the RSC-WR-6 or another Supermicro riser for my 1U chassis?
The RSC-WR-6 is a right-side PCIe 4.0 x16 riser designed for 1U servers; select it when your build needs a full-length slot on the right side of the motherboard.
What does the PCIe 4.0 x16 designation mean for a card installed in this riser?
It provides a 16-lane PCIe 4.0 connection to the CPU, allowing a GPU or accelerator to operate at the full electrical width and signalling rate the processor supports.
Which interface standard does the riser use and what does it limit?
The riser uses the PCIe 4.0 x16 interface, so the maximum link speed and lane count are capped at what the host CPU and motherboard socket deliver.
