Internal USB Header Adapter

This adapter converts a USB 2.0 motherboard header into a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-C front-panel socket. It is intended for PC builders who want to add a modern front-panel USB-C port to a board that only offers the older 9-pin internal connector.

9-Pin to 20-Pin Conversion

The device bridges a 9-pin USB 2.0 header to a 20-pin Key-A female socket, enabling USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds for a single front-panel port. It cannot supply the bandwidth or power delivery of a native USB 3.2 Gen 2 or USB4 header, so high-performance external drives will be limited to the 5 Gbps ceiling.

180-Degree Slim Profile

The connector bends 180 degrees and measures 24 by 13 by 5 millimetres, letting it fit behind tight motherboard layouts or against chassis walls. Builders whose cases require a straight or right-angle exit, or who need to chain multiple front-panel ports, will need a different adapter geometry.
