Vszerda

Vszerda PCIe 1x to USB 3.2 Gen1 5Gbps Type-E 20-pin + USB 3.0 19-pin Expansion Card

SKU CH-JNTE-DJWHG

Adds a front-panel USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-E header and a USB 3.0 19-pin socket via a PCIe x1 slot using a Renesas D720201 chip at 5 Gbit/s

  • Adds a front-panel USB-C 3.2 Gen1 header via a single PCIe 1x slot
  • Includes a 19-pin USB 3.0 header for internal Type-A connectivity
  • Delivers up to 5 Gbit/s transfer speed for fast file moves
  • Works with Windows XP through 11 and Linux on x1 to x16 slots
  • Uses Renesas D720201 controller for reliable operation

PCIe 1x expansion for front-panel USB

This Vszerda card adds a USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-E 20-pin header and a USB 3.0 19-pin socket to any desktop with a free PCIe 1x, 4x, 8x or 16x slot. It targets builders whose chassis front panel includes a Type-C connector but whose motherboard lacks the matching internal header. The Renesas D720201 controller handles the protocol conversion without requiring an external power cable.

Sustained throughput at 5 Gbit/s

The adapter maintains the full 5 Gbit/s signalling rate during extended file transfers rather than throttling after a short burst. Windows XP through 11 and Linux kernels recognise the device natively, so driver overhead stays low during long copy sessions. Both the Type-E and 19-pin ports share the single PCIe 1x lane, so simultaneous heavy traffic on both connectors divides the available bandwidth.

Low-profile bracket keeps thermals simple

The card draws all power from the PCIe slot and ships with a low-profile bracket that fits compact cases without blocking airflow. No active cooling is present, so acoustic output is zero and surface temperatures remain close to ambient during typical workloads. The bare PCB design leaves the Renesas controller exposed to case airflow, which is sufficient for the power envelope of a 5 Gbit/s USB host controller.

Questions about this item

Does the Renesas D720201 chip generate noticeable heat when the card runs at 5 Gbit/s all day?

The Renesas D720201 controller is a low-power USB 3.2 Gen1 device; under continuous 5 Gbit/s traffic it stays cool enough that no active cooling is required.

Which motherboard headers must I already have free to use both the 20-pin Type-E and the 19-pin USB 3.0 connectors?

You need one spare PCIe x1 (or larger) slot plus a front-panel USB 3.2 Gen1 Type-E 20-pin header and a separate USB 3.0 19-pin header on the motherboard.

Will this card work in an older PCIe 2.0 x1 slot without losing the 5 Gbit/s speed?

Yes, the Renesas D720201 negotiates at PCIe 2.0 x1 bandwidth, which still exceeds the 5 Gbit/s USB 3.2 Gen1 limit, so full speed is maintained.
