PCIe 4.0 is expected be a short-lived standard, as PCI-SIG, the organization behind the interface, is already close to releasing finalized specs for PCIe 5.0: the group announced it ratified Version 0.9 this week, leading the way to a final revision in Q1 2019 and potential products by the end of the year. While PCIe 4.0 granted 64GBps of throughput, PCIe 5.0 doubles that to 128GBps.
PCIe 5.0 also brings other features, like electrical changes to improve signal integrity, backward-compatible CEM connectors for add-in cards, and backward compatibility with previous versions of PCIe. The PCI-SIG also designed the new standard to reduce latency and tolerate higher signal loss for long-reach applications.
