7.13. PCI Express x16 Slot (PEG1)
The mITX-HSW-S supports PCI Express x16 via slot PEG1 and supports PEG Bifurcation. PEG Bifurcation enables the
PCI Expression lanes to be divided into:
2x PCIe x8;
1x PCIe x8 + 1x PCIe x4; or
1x PCIe x8 + 2x PCIe x4
via the jumper JP8.
For PEG Bifurcation to function a PCIe Riser Card with bifurcation is required.
The 16-lane (x16) PCI Express (PEG1) port can be used for external PCI Express cards inclusive graphics card. The
maximum theoretical bandwidth using 16 lane is 16 GB/s.
