DeLOCK M.2 Key A+E to PCIe x8 NVMe Adapter angled with 20 cm cable

This DeLOCK M.2 Key A+E to PCIe x8 NVMe Adapter allows connecting a PCI Express card to an M.2 Key A+E slot. The adapter uses an angled connector and a 20 cm flexible cable to enable space-saving and flexible installation inside a computer case. A separate power connector is provided to supply 12 V to the PCIe card when required; the adapter supports UEFI 2.3.

Advantages

The angled connector and 20 cm cable grant installation flexibility and improved cable routing in compact systems. The adapter supports NVMe devices via a PCIe x8 interface and includes a dedicated power connector for cards that require external 12 V supply. Compatibility with UEFI 2.3 ensures modern boot and firmware environments are supported.

Suitable for

• Adding a PCIe x8 NVMe card to a system with an M.2 Key A+E slot
• Compact or small-form-factor PC builds that need flexible cable routing
• Upgrading embedded systems or motherboards lacking free PCIe slots
