Product Overview

The HighPoint RU1244A is an advanced PCI Express 3.0 x8 USB 3.2 Gen 2 Host Controller designed to provide robust data throughput across multiple USB-A peripherals. Equipped with four high performance 10Gbps ports, this controller is ideal for workstations and servers where high-speed external storage, video capture devices, or expansion peripherals demand maximum bandwidth and stability.

Featuring a full-height form factor and native xHCI support, the RU1244A ensures driverless installation on Windows, Linux, and macOS platforms for hassle-free deployment. Each USB-A port delivers a dedicated 10Gb/s link, enabling simultaneous high-speed transfers without throttling or shared bandwidth limitations. This makes it ideal for professional media workflows, large-scale backups, or virtualization environments that rely on consistent peripheral performance.

Its compact dimensions—3.79” width, 4.09” depth, and 0.7” height—make installation seamless in standard ATX and enterprise chassis. Manufactured in China, the controller comes with a 1-year limited warranty and is not TAA compliant. The RU1244A represents a reliable, cross-platform connectivity solution for IT administrators and developers needing USB 3.2 Gen 2 performance at scale.
