AKASA USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Internal 20-pin Connector
AKASA USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 Internal 20-pin Connector
The AKASA USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 internal controller upgrades your desktop computer with modern front-panel connectivity. This expansion card installs into a free PCIe slot on the motherboard and solves the problem of older systems lacking a native connector. Once installed, you get an internal 20-pin Key-A connector, which is essential for connecting high-speed USB-C ports located on the computer case. This upgrade effectively brings ports to life that would otherwise remain unused. The card also maintains backwards compatibility with older USB 2.0, 3.0, and 3.1 standards.

Data transfer at 20Gb/s
Thanks to its support for the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 standard, copying large files like 4K videos or complex projects is a breeze. This expansion card communicates at a transfer speed of up to 20Gb/s, which significantly reduces waiting times when working with data. You can take full advantage of this high performance when backing up system drives or editing content directly from external NVMe SSDs.
Installation and power
You can plug the expansion card into any free PCIe x1 slot, and its physical design also makes it compatible with longer x4, x8, and x16 slots. For stable operation of connected devices that require a higher current draw, you need to connect additional power from a SATA connector on the computer's power supply. This controller with SATA power reliably supplies energy to external drives or other peripherals.
Flexible mounting and wide compatibility
In addition to the standard bracket, the package also includes an interchangeable low-profile bracket. This allows the card to be installed even in compact SFF (Small Form Factor) computer cases with limited internal space. Flexible installation in various builds is also supported by wide software compatibility. The AKASA controller works with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux operating systems, which makes integration easy without needing to search for specific drivers.
