Quatech Model ADP-XP54 – ExpressCard 54mm adapter for 34mm cards

Quatech’s Model ADP-XP54 ExpressCard 54mm Adapter secures 34mm cards into standard 54mm slots
on the laptop by providing additional edge rail in the larg er slot. Adding the Model ADP-XP54 to the
34mm cards improves the ability of the card to withstand normal stress and not dislodge from the slot. The
adapter is now provided with every Quatech 34mm Expresscard. The Model ADP-XP54 can also be
ordered as a field upgrade on all existing installed 34mm Quatech Expresscard product family.

Install the adapter on the 34mm Quatech Expresscard by attaching the spring loaded arm around the top of
the card by the external connector and snapping into place.

The adapter can now be inserted into the 54mm slot more securely and should not dislodge due to
accidental or normal stress applied to the Expresscard interface adapter.

Please note that the 34mm Expresscard can be used in the 54mm slot without the
Model ADP-XP54 adapter. Some laptops are configured with only a 34mm slot
which do not require the Model ADP-XP54 adapter.
