Front-Panel Type-E Adapter
This 50 cm cable converts a motherboard USB 3.1 Type-E header into an external USB-C female port. It targets builders whose chassis lacks a native front-panel Type-C cutout but whose board exposes the internal header. The assembly includes a full-height PCI bracket for standard-tower mounting.
Installation Steps
Route the cable from the motherboard header to a rear expansion slot and secure the bracket with a case screw. The connector is keyed, yet the narrow pins can bend if forced at an angle. The supplier notes the bracket fits only standard chassis; mini-ITX or slim cases will not accept it. Verify the board actually provides a Type-E header before purchasing.
Sustained-Use Behaviour
Sixteen conductors and silver-plated contacts keep impedance low during long transfers. The specification cites 100 W power delivery capability, so attached devices can charge at high rates without the cable becoming a thermal bottleneck. Signal integrity is maintained over the half-metre length under continuous load.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 16-core USB 3.1 cable is functioning after connecting it to the motherboard Type-E header?
Plug a USB-C device into the female port; the system should recognise it immediately and transfer data at full 3.1 speeds, showing the silver-plated 16-core link is active.
What does the package contain and what must I supply myself?
The box includes the 50 cm Type-E male to USB-C female cable and a full-height PCI bracket; you must provide a motherboard with a USB 3.1 Type-E header and a standard chassis with an open PCI slot.
Which version suits a motherboard like the Z270 that has a Type-E header?
This single 50 cm, 16-core cable rated for 100 W power delivery is the correct choice for any board exposing a USB 3.1 Type-E front-panel connector.
