PCIe Flex Cable for NVMe Base and Raspberry Pi 5

by Pimoroni

These cables give you a variety of options for connecting and placing your NVMe Base or NVMe Base Duo.

They have a 'one way' design with 16 pads at the Raspberry Pi 5 end and 18 pins at the NVMe Base end to prevent incorrect installation.

They are designed for PCIe Gen 3 speeds and support Gen 2 perfectly fine also.

The 35mm PCIe Pipe is the standard cable that ships with NVMe Base for a compact install.

The 50mm PCIe Pipe adds some length, while remaining in-spec so you can mount your NVMe Base more comfortably around an existing case. It allows for a wider range of mechanical setups and might also be handy if you want to mount your Base on top/alongside your RPi 5.

The straight 33mm PCIe Flex cable is the one you'll need for use with NVME Base Duo.
