Efficient IT infrastructure relies not only on new devices, but also on the ability to flexibly expand equipment that is already in use. PCI Express expansion cards make it possible to quickly increase the functionality of desktop computers, adapting them to current data transmission standards and modern interfaces.
Lanberg is introducing two new PCI Express card models to its portfolio: PCE-25GB-001, a 2.5G RJ45 network card, and PCE-UC3-002, equipped with two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x1 ports. These practical components make it easier to modernize workstations, expand hardware configurations and make better use of existing computers.
Faster wired networking with PCE-25GB-001
The growing amount of data, work with network resources, access to servers, NAS systems and high-speed internet connections mean that standard bandwidth may no longer be sufficient. Lanberg PCE-25GB-001 makes it easy to expand a desktop computer with a 2.5 Gb/s wired network connection.
The card is equipped with an RJ45 port, a PCI Express x1 interface and an Intel I226 chipset, making it well suited to environments where stability, low latency and predictable connection performance are important. Support for the IEEE 802.3x Flow Control standard helps manage data flow, which is significant during intensive transmission in wired networks.
It is a practical choice for upgrading office computers, technical workstations, service facilities, points of sale and units operating within local infrastructure. The included low-profile bracket makes installation easier also in compact cases, while compatibility with Linux, Windows 10 and Windows 11 increases deployment flexibility.
Two USB-C ports where they are really needed
More and more peripheral devices, storage media and accessories use the USB-C connector. In many desktop computers, however, the number of such ports is limited or they are missing entirely. Lanberg PCE-UC3-002 solves this problem by making it possible to quickly add two USB-C 3.2 Gen 2x1 ports to a computer.
The model offers data transmission speeds of up to 10 Gb/s, making it easier to work with external drives, flash drives, adapters and modern devices used at workstations. It is a particularly convenient solution for expanding computers in offices, service centers, technical workshops, educational institutions and environments where fast data handling is important.
Stable operation of the card is ensured by the Asmedia ASM1142 chipset, while the PCI Express x1 interface allows for easy installation in desktop computers. The model supports backward compatibility and works with Linux, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11. A low-profile bracket is also included, increasing installation options in smaller cases.
Simple upgrade. Real value in everyday work
The new Lanberg PCI Express cards make it possible to quickly adapt existing computers to the current needs of infrastructure and users. It is a practical way to increase workstation functionality without having to replace entire computer sets.
PCE-25GB-001 expands a computer with a fast 2.5G Ethernet network connection, while PCE-UC3-002 adds two USB-C ports with bandwidth of up to 10 Gb/s. Both models combine easy installation, broad compatibility and practical accessories, making them well suited as part of desktop computer modernization.
Lanberg provides solutions that help develop infrastructure step by step - without unnecessary complications and without replacing entire workstations.
