Mini PCIe 2.5 Gbps Ethernet Adapter

This Syba network card adds a single 10/100/1000/25000 Mbps RJ45 port through any Mini PCI Express slot. It targets desktop owners who need 2.5 Gbps wired connectivity but lack a full-size PCIe slot. The board fits standard and low-profile brackets for small-form-factor cases. It is not for buyers who want multiple ports or fibre connectivity.

Installation notes

The package includes a 12 cm standard bracket and an 8 cm low-profile bracket plus a driver disc. Fit the bracket that matches your chassis, insert the card into a free Mini PCIe socket, and install the driver from the disc or the OS repository. Common issues: Mini PCIe slots wired only for USB or mSATA will not pass PCIe lanes, so the card will not appear; some OEM boards whitelist approved cards and block third-party NICs.

Pre-order checklist

Confirm your motherboard or appliance has an open Mini PCI Express slot wired for PCIe signalling, not just USB. Verify the physical slot length accepts a full-height Mini PCIe card. Check that your operating system (Windows 10, 8.1, 7, Vista, XP, 2000, 98SE, ME or Linux) is on the supported list. Ensure your switch or router negotiates 2.5 Gbps; the card falls back to 1 Gbps or 100 Mbps automatically.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the 2.5 Gbps link is active after installing the Mini PCIe card?

Check the adapter properties in Device Manager or ethtool; the reported speed should read 2.5 Gbps and the switch port LED will show the negotiated rate.

What comes in the box and what must I source separately?

The package includes the Mini PCIe network card, a driver disk, a 12 cm standard bracket and an 8 cm low-profile bracket; you only need a free Mini PCIe slot and an RJ45 cable.

Which bracket should I use for a low-profile HTPC case?

Fit the supplied 8 cm low-profile bracket for small-form-factor or HTPC chassis; the 12 cm bracket is for full-height desktop slots.
