Slot expander DeLOCK 41359 Mini PCI Express PCI 32 Bit

The DeLOCK 41359 slot expander lets you connect one standard PCI card to a Mini PCI Express slot on your motherboard. It uses a 32-bit PCI interface and a flexible cable to provide a compact, space-saving installation inside a computer case while enabling the addition of legacy PCI cards to systems with Mini PCIe slots.

Advantages

The adapter supports a 32-bit PCI connection, offering compatibility with many PCI cards. Its flexible cable enables installation in confined spaces and allows you to position the PCI card where there is room inside the chassis. The compact design requires minimal internal space and simplifies adding functionality without replacing the motherboard.

Suitable for

• Systems with Mini PCI Express slots that need to use a standard PCI card
• Small form factor or crowded cases where direct PCI mounting is not possible
• Upgrading legacy hardware functionality without a full system replacement

How to use

Power off the system and unplug it from the mains. Insert the Mini PCI Express connector of the expander into the Mini PCIe slot on the motherboard. Secure the flexible cable and position the PCI slot bracket or mounting area where there is space inside the case. Install the standard PCI card into the expander's PCI slot and fasten it as required. Reconnect power and start the system; install drivers for the PCI card if necessary.

Recommendations

Ensure the PCI card’s power and cooling requirements are met within the case and verify driver compatibility with your operating system. Avoid forcing connectors; align pins carefully when inserting the Mini PCI Express connector and the PCI card.
