Riser PCIe x1 - PCIe x16 DeLOCK 89159

The DeLOCK Riser PCIe x1 to PCIe x16 (model 89159) is an internal extension riser card that lets you connect a PCI Express x16 card to a motherboard PCIe x1 slot. The riser provides a fixed 20.32 mm (0.8 inch) extension to reposition or accommodate an expansion card inside the chassis while maintaining a direct wired PCIe connection.

Advantages

This internal PCIe riser enables compatibility between PCIe x1 host slots and PCIe x16 cards without active components or external adapters. It supports high-speed data transfer over a direct PCIe interface and offers a compact wired solution for flexible card placement inside the computer case.

How to use

Switch off the PC and disconnect power. Insert the riser card into the motherboard PCIe x1 slot, then firmly seat the PCIe x16 expansion card into the riser’s x16 connector. Ensure both connections are secure and that the card is properly supported within the case. Reconnect power and boot the system; the operating system should detect the installed expansion card as usual.

Recommendations

Use the riser card only in powered-off systems and avoid forcing connectors. Verify physical clearance and secure the expansion card to prevent movement. This wired riser provides a short internal extension; it is not a powered or active signal booster and should be used where electrical and mechanical compatibility is met.
