USB 2.0 header hub adapter
This Fervit adapter converts a single internal USB 2.0 header into two 9-pin connectors. It is designed for PC builders who need extra front-panel or internal USB ports on a motherboard with limited headers. The board includes a USB 2.0 hub chipset and ships new with adhesive backing for direct mounting on the mainboard or chassis.
Installation notes and common issues
The adapter plugs straight onto an existing 9-pin header and sticks in place with the supplied back glue, so no screws or tools are required. Each port delivers up to 500 mA at 5 V, so high-draw devices may exceed the available current if both ports are loaded simultaneously. Builders should verify header pin-out alignment before powering on to avoid shorting the motherboard.
Practical limits of the USB 2.0 interface
The hub chipset operates at USB 2.0 speeds with a maximum throughput of 480 Mbps shared across both ports. Bandwidth is divided when two devices transfer data at the same time, so sustained transfers will be slower than a single dedicated header. The 500 mA per-port current limit also restricts charging capability for power-hungry peripherals.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the hub is running at 480 Mbps after I plug it into the motherboard header?
Open the OS device manager or system profiler and verify the port enumerates at high-speed USB 2.0 (480 Mbps) rather than full-speed.
What comes in the box and do I need any extra cables or headers to install it?
The adapter includes the USB 2.0 male plug and two 9-pin female headers with adhesive backing; no additional cables are required for a standard motherboard header.
Which version should I choose if I need two internal USB ports each limited to 500 mA?
This single model provides exactly two 9-pin headers, each rated for DC 5 V 500 mA, so there is no alternative capacity to select.
