The ARCTIC ACFAN00175A is a 10-port PWM fan hub for builders who have more case fans than motherboard headers. Rather than chaining splitters, you plug the fans into the hub, run one lead to a motherboard fan header for the PWM signal and take power from a spare SATA connector on the PSU.
The board measures 86.3 x 55.6 x 14.3 mm and weighs 50 g, so it tucks behind a motherboard tray or along a case rail, and the black finish blends into most chassis interiors.
- 10 fan ports with PWM control
- Powered via SATA, not through the motherboard header
- Black, 50 g
Before ordering, confirm your fans are PWM models so that speed control works, and that your power supply has a free SATA power plug. Available in South Africa from DistriNode.
Frequently asked questions
How many fans can I connect?
Up to 10 fans through the hub's PWM ports.
How is the hub powered?
From a SATA power connector on your power supply, so the fans do not draw their power through the motherboard header.
What are the dimensions?
86.3 x 55.6 x 14.3 mm and about 50 g, small enough to hide behind the motherboard tray.
The Case Fan Hub provides centralised cable management for system cooling. It includes adhesive pads and magnetic strips for flexible placement inside the PC case, connects to the motherboard with a single cable and is powered via SATA. The hub expands available fan connections and supplies external power directly from the power supply for stable fan operation.
Advantages
The hub allows neat cable routing by consolidating multiple fan connections into one unit that can be positioned in hidden areas of the case. It passes the motherboard PWM signal synchronously to all connected fans while reporting the RPM of the first fan slot back to the system. Powered via SATA, it prevents voltage loss at the fans and supports up to nine additional case fan slots when mainboard headers are limited.
Key specifications
- Placement: adhesive pads and magnetic strips for flexible mounting inside the case
- Connection to motherboard: single cable for PWM/RPM signal
- Power supply: SATA power connector (external power from PSU)
- Fan support: expands system by up to 9 additional case fan slots
- RPM reporting: reads RPM from first fan slot and returns it to the system
- Signal handling: synchronous PWM signal passed to all connected fans
How to use
Attach the hub inside the case using the included adhesive pads or magnetic strips in a convenient hidden location. Connect the hub to the motherboard with the single PWM/RPM cable so the system can control fan speed and read RPM from the first fan slot. Connect the SATA power cable to the power supply to provide external power. Plug the case fans into the hub’s fan ports, distributing them as needed across the available slots.
Recommendations
Ensure the SATA power connection is secure before powering the system. Place the hub where airflow and cable routing are optimal, and confirm the motherboard supports PWM control for connected fans to achieve synchronous speed regulation.
