Introduction
The PCIUSB3S2 2-Port PCI SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Adapter Card allows for legacy PCI
slots to support the USB 3.0 standard, which is capable of data transfer rates up to 5
Gbps (10x faster than USB 2.0 at 480 Mbps). This allows for full use of the PCI bus at
1.3 Gbps, allowing older systems double the performance with USB 3.0 versus using
USB 2.0 cards and peripherals. Also being backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.x
devices, this versatile adapter card will work with future USB 3.0 devices while still being
able to support older devices.
Designed for older PCI-based systems or computers with only PCI expansion slots left
available, this adapter card allows those systems to stay relevant and up-to-date with the
latest USB technology.

Installation
WARNING! PCI cards, like all computer equipment, can be severely damaged by static
electricity. Be sure that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case
or touching your PCI card. StarTech.com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap
when installing any computer component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge
yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface
(such as the computer case) for several seconds. Also be careful to handle the PCI card
by its edges and not the gold connectors.
Hardware Installation
1. Turn your computer off and any peripherals connected to the computer (i.e. Printers,
external hard drives, etc.). Unplug the power cable from the rear of the power supply
on the back of the computer and disconnect all peripheral devices.
2. Remove the cover from the computer case. Refer to documentation for your computer
system for details.
3. Locate an open PCI or PCI-X slot and remove the metal cover plate on the rear of the
computer case.
4. Insert the card into the open PCI or PCI-X slot and fasten the card’s bracket to the rear
of the case.
NOTE: If installing the card into a small form factor/low profile system, replacing the
pre-installed full profile bracket with the included low profile installation bracket may be
necessary.
5. Connect an 4-pin LP4 power connector from the system power supply to the LP4
connector on the rear edge of the card. This ensures all ports have full power.
6. Place the cover back onto the computer case.
7. Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply and reconnect all other
connectors removed in Step 1.
