Riser Cards
Riser Cards are a printed circuit board that gives a computer motherboard the option for additional expansion cards to put in the computer.
They are oriented in a perpendicular fashion to allow for better use of limited space.
This allows for expansions cards installation in a space where there would not be use for them traditionally.
Riser Cards have applications in both industrial and consumer spaces.
Industrial
- In servers, height for expansion cards limited by rack units.
- depends on the size of the expansion card
Consumer
- In small-form-factor (SFF) computers built by computer enthusiasts
- PCI-E Cards was in a similar sense to a server application.
- uses as sandwich a graphics card closer to a computer motherboard
Riser Cables
- Riser Cables in a computer based application allow for further distances of data transmission than traditional riser cards.
- cables used a Riser Card PCB and an edge connector on each side of the cable
- cables traditionally used in modern household gaming .
- allows for customization and the addition of additional parts to suit the creator or builders needs.
