Connect Seven USB-A Peripherals
Using Only One PCIe Card Slot

Peripherals using USB Type A connectors have been available for over 25 years, and you may have quite a few of those devices. There are bound to be situations when you want to use several of them at the same time, or perhaps you just want to connect more peripherals than your computer can handle on its own. Either way, Allegro 7-Port USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A PCIe Card has you covered — you only need one full-height PCIe card slot in your computer to connect seven more devices to it.

Maestro of Ports
Supports Almost Any Type of Peripheral

Of course, Allegro 7-Port USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A PCIe Card supports general-purpose devices such as keyboards, mice and printers; and storage devices such as flash drives, hard drives, and media card readers. Better yet, you can connect many pro audio devices such as audio interfaces, control pads, microphones, MIDI controllers, and mixers. In most cases, if your peripheral uses a Type A connector, this Sonnet card supports it.

Powers Your Drives
Allegro 7-port card provides 0.9A of power through each port, enabling it to support many bus-powered flash drives, hard drives, and SSDs without the need for you to connect a separate power adapter.

Protection Against Faulty Cables and Connected Devices
Unlike ordinary USB-A cards, Allegro 7-port features a resettable fuse on each port to protect the card and your computer should a cable or peripheral short circuit. Resetting a tripped fuse is simple — just shut down and restart your computer.

Bandwidth Across Ports
Allegro 7-Port USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type A PCIe Card supports devices connected to three of its external ports with 5Gbps of bandwidth each. Devices connected to the other three external ports — plus the internal port — share 5Gbps bandwidth together; if only one device is connected to any of these ports, it gets the full 5Gbps bandwidth.
