HP Flex IO v2 USB 3.1 Gen 1 Expansion Module with Dual USB-A Ports for Adding 5 Gbps Connectivity to Compatible HP EliteDesk and ProDesk Desktop Systems
The HP USB 3.1 Gen1 x2 Flex IO v2 (13L58AA) is a compact expansion module that adds two USB 3.1 Gen 1 Type-A ports to HP desktops equipped with a Flex IO v2 slot. Each port delivers 5 Gbps throughput for connecting external storage, peripherals, and accessories directly through the rear chassis panel on HP EliteDesk 800 G6, EliteDesk 805 G6, ProDesk 600 G6, ProDesk 400 G6, ProDesk 400 G7, ProDesk 405 G6, and ProDesk 480 G7 systems.
At 0.7 x 1.6 x 1.6 inches and 0.03 pounds, the Flex IO v2 module slides into the dedicated expansion bay on compatible HP desktops without consuming a PCIe slot or requiring external USB hubs. This integrated approach adds two high-speed USB ports that sit flush with the rear panel, maintaining a clean desktop setup while expanding connectivity for workstations that need additional peripheral connections.
Where the HP USB 3.1 Flex IO v2 Module Fits
- HP desktop deployments that need additional USB ports without hubs where the Flex IO v2 module adds two USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports at 5 Gbps each through the dedicated expansion bay, eliminating the need for external USB hubs that consume desk space and create cable clutter
- IT environments standardizing peripheral connectivity across HP fleets where tool-free installation simplifies large-scale rollouts, the 0.03-pound module adds USB ports without modifying system configurations, and compatibility spans EliteDesk 800 G6, EliteDesk 805 G6, ProDesk 600 G6, ProDesk 400 G6/G7, ProDesk 405 G6, and ProDesk 480 G7 platforms
- Workstations connecting multiple USB peripherals simultaneously where two additional rear-panel USB 3.1 Gen 1 ports provide dedicated 5 Gbps connections for external drives, scanners, card readers, or other accessories that benefit from direct chassis-mounted ports over shared hub bandwidth
