This PCIe 5.0 Mini Cool Edge IO (MCIO) 4i to MCIO 4i extender cable is designed for high-speed interconnect applications in modern server, storage and data-centre environments.
The cable provides direct MCIO-to-MCIO connectivity using 38-pin 4-lane PCI Express interfaces, enabling reliable extension of PCIe signals between controllers, backplanes and expansion modules.
Engineered for enterprise performance, the assembly supports PCIe Gen 3, Gen 4 and Gen 5 signalling, delivering stable high-bandwidth data transmission with excellent signal integrity. It is suitable for NVMe storage expansion, modular server architectures and high-density computing platforms.
The MCIO interface allows compact routing while maintaining airflow efficiency and minimal insertion loss. Designed for continuous-operation environments, the cable supports advanced system layouts including cable-to-board, card-to-board and chip-to-board interconnect designs.
Commonly used in data centres, networking platforms and telecommunications infrastructure, this extender cable supports additional protocols such as SAS 3.0 / 4.0 and high-speed Ethernet signalling where system architecture permits.
Cable length is 0.5 metres and finished in a durable black jacket for long-term reliability.
