This USB 3.0 pin header cable by DeLOCK connects internally to a free 19/20-pin header on your motherboard and provides two additional USB 3.0-A female ports mounted on a small bracket. The cable is 0.45 m long, supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1) with maximum data transfer rates up to 5 Gbit/s, and comes in blue. It is designed for adding external-accessible USB ports to custom-built or compact systems where front-panel or bracket-mounted ports are needed.

Advantages

How to use

Power off the PC and disconnect it from the mains.

Secure the bracket-mounted USB-A ports in a free expansion slot or mounting position using the available screw holes. Reconnect power and boot the system; the operating system should detect the ports automatically if drivers for the motherboard chipset are installed.

Recommendations

Use the cable inside a powered-off chassis and handle the motherboard header with care to avoid bent pins. For maximum performance, connect USB 3.x devices and ensure your motherboard drivers are up to date.
