SilverStone RC03 PCIe x16 Riser Ribbon Cable – Black (SST-RC03B-220)

RC03 is a high-quality PCIe x16 flexible riser ribbon cable designed by SilverStone to provide a 0.22 m extension for PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots. The Silverstone SST-RC03B-220 features male and female connectors and a black finish, enabling compact and tidy installations while maintaining signal integrity for PCIe devices.

Advantages

The SST-RC03B-220 offers a flexible, low-profile connection that facilitates installation of PCIe expansion or graphics cards in constrained chassis such as SilverStone PIO models and other Mini-ITX builds. Its 0.22 m length and ribbon design improve routing options and can help optimize airflow inside the case without introducing additional components.

Suitable for

• Mini-ITX chassis that require PCIe x16 card placement flexibility
• SilverStone PIO series cases to enable alternate GPU or expansion card layouts
• Any system or enclosure needing a short PCIe x16 extension

Key specifications

• Connector type: PCI Express 3.0 x16 male to female
• Length: 0.22 m
• Product colour: Black
• Model / MPN: SST-RC03B-220
• EAN: 4710007225745

How to use

Power down and unplug the system before installing the ribbon cable. Attach the female end to the PCIe slot on the motherboard and secure the male end to the PCIe card according to the case layout and card bracket requirements. Ensure connectors are fully seated and routed to avoid sharp bends or contact with moving parts. Reconnect power and verify device detection in the operating system.

Recommendations

Use this ribbon cable in configurations that require a short, flexible PCIe x16 extension. Avoid excessive bending at the connector ends and do not stretch the cable beyond its length. For high-power graphics cards, confirm adequate case airflow and power delivery when relocating the card via the riser cable.
