The invention discloses an IO extended module based on modular design. The IO extended module comprises a main control module, a rear plugboard module 1 and a rear plugboard module 2. The main controlmodule is used for providing a Serial Rapid IO interface, an R232 interface, an internet access, a USB interface, an SATA interface and other universal interfaces for the outside, the main control module is connected with the rear plugboard module 1 through a backboard, and the corresponding interface is directly led out to the outside, or the corresponding interface is rolled out through an associated chip, so that the display and storage functions are easily achieved, or the function of data exchange with the outside is easily achieved; the rear plugboard module 2 is adjacent to a corresponding rear socket, and is specially responsible for converting the x1 PCIe introduced by the main control module into a PCI introduction backboard. If an external IO interface is changed, under the condition that original design is not changed, it is only required that a different IO extended module is replaced, different IO can be achieved, flexible and universal requirements of development of devices for all the arms and services are met, and the extending range of business application is enlarged.
