Built in FebSmart Self-Powered Technology, users do not need to plug any addtional power supply from PC’s PSU, but each USB 3.1 GEN2 port can get 5V/3A 15W power supply for connected high power consumption USB 3.1 GEN2 devices data transfer, which including NVME USB SSD enclosures, USB SATA SSD/HDD enclosures, VR-System, 10Gbps USB hubs and USB-A 4K video adapters. The 5X USB-A ports also provides stable and fast connection for normal USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 devices such as web cameras, mice, keyboard, smart phone, video capture, KVM switch, USB hub etc. The 5X added on USB-A ports will not occupy motherboard USB Main Lan speed, it's an extra bandwidth by PCI Express X4 on Desktop PCs.

What is the FebSmart Self-Powered Technology?

FebSmart Self-Powered Technology is a new solution to add more power supply on USB 3.1 GEN2 expansion cards. The old version PCI Express USB 3.1GEN2 card need to plug a power cable from the Desktop PCs power supply unit. Even added-on additional power, USB ports still lack power when running few high power-consuming devices simultaneously, such as NVME SSD enclosures. PCI Express slot can provide 75W max power almost 12V/6.25A. FebSmart add on 5X voltage transformer on 5X USB 3.1 GEN2 port, pick up 12/2.5A in total power and transfer to 5V/15A. Then distribute current to each USB 3.1 GEN2 port 5V/3A max power for high power consumption USB 3.1 GEN2 devices. To protect USB 3.1 GEN2 devices, FebSmart designed 5X electric safety fuse, 5X voltage stable capacitance and 5X voltage stable inductance. Do not worry data loss or burn USB 3.1 GEN2 devices now. Add super fast and easy install USB 3.1 GEN2 host controller card on Desktop PCs. Choose More Stable, Fast and Safe data connection with FebSmart.

Achieving 10 Gbps Data Rates in USB 3.1 GEN2 Using Multiple INs and Hub Payload Buffering

What is USB 3.1 GEN2 Multiple-INs?

Now USB 3.1 can handle multiple device data transfer simultaneously, without waiting the first device accomplish it's task, NOT like USB3.0/2.0 does. USB 3.1 device may receive a second ACK TP for a different endpoint before it has a chance to respond to the first ACK TP. A more complex USB 3.1 device would take advantage of the multiple INs by servicing the requests separately, possibly returning data to each one, reducing the likelihood that Not Ready would need to be used.

How is Multiple-INs improving USB bandwidth?

When USB 3.0 Host Controller works with the external USB HUB is a “cut-through” model, upstream port and downstream ports on the hub were all operating at the same speed. When put in one USB 2.0 Hub all speed will down. Then USB 3.0 Host Cotroller can not run full speed. When USB 3.1 GEN2 Host Controller works with USB 3.1, 3.0 Hubs "Cut-through" will not work, with the new "store and forward” service, USB 3.1 hubs take a much more active role in making sure that the flow of data is smooth and the user’s experienced performance is not interrupted.
