Internal USB 2.0 header expander

This EN-Labs hub turns a single USB 2.0 9-pin motherboard header into four male headers. A Molex 12 V connection draws power directly from the PSU so high-current devices do not overload the board. The 1.64 ft cable links the hub to the header. A self-adhesive pad holds the low-profile PCB in place.

Builders needing extra front-panel ports

The four 9-pin outputs suit cases with multiple USB 2.0 front-panel connectors or internal accessories such as card readers. Systems that lack a free Molex connector or that require USB 3.x speeds cannot use this adapter.

Straightforward header installation

Plug the hub into the motherboard 9-pin header, attach the Molex plug to the PSU, and connect up to four devices. The short 1.64 ft cable limits placement options in large chassis. Alignment of the 9-pin plugs must be checked to avoid bent pins.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need a spare USB 2.0 9-pin header to use this hub?

Yes, the hub plugs into one USB 2.0 9-pin motherboard header and splits it into four male headers.

Will the hub work with USB 1.1 devices I still have connected to the header?

The hub uses a Terminus FE2.1 chipset that supports USB 2.0 speeds; USB 1.1 devices will operate at their native rate.

How can I confirm the hub is receiving the extra 12 V power after installation?

Connect the Molex 4-pin plug to the PSU; the hub then draws 12 V for high-power devices instead of loading the motherboard header.
