Peripheral component interconnect express slot expansion system

摘要

A Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) slot expansion system includes a cable adapter, at least one card docking station, and a plurality of standard USB3.0 2-in-1 internal cables. The cable adapter includes a plurality of first PCIe connecting ports and a PCIe male connector, the PCIe male connector is configured to be inserted into a first PCIe slot of a mother board. The card docking station has a width of 5.25 inch. Each card docking station includes: one or two power input port; one or two second PCIe connecting port; and at least one PCI slot or second PCIe slot. Each standard USB3.0 2-in-1 internal cable has a first cable connector and a second cable connector at two opposite ends to be connected with the first connecting port and the second PCIe connecting port respectively.
