PCIe 4.0 Retimer Adapter for 4 U.2 NVMe SSD by SFF-8654 to 2* SFF-8639 Cable
Applications
It is targeted for meeting the higher performance PCIe Gen4 interconnection needs of the following end applications:
Servers
Storage Appliances
Hardware Accelerators
The Motherboard with CPU and BIOS needs to support bifurcation to ensure PCIe x16 link width to bifurcate two x8 link width or four x4 link width for NVMe SSD, Otherwise this card can only support PCIe x16 link width.
