Fervit USB 3.0 19/20Pin to USB-C & USB 3.0 Dual Port PCI-E Back Panel Cable

SKU CH-YGT2-1V72D

Adds a USB-C and a USB 3.0 port to a rear slot from a motherboard 19/20-pin header at 5 Gbps

  • Add USB-C and USB 3.0 ports to your rear panel using a 19/20-pin header
  • 5 Gbps Type-C data for fast SSD/HDD transfers
  • Backwards compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices
  • Pure data cable — no video, audio, docking or power-delivery support
  • Fits a standard PCI-E bracket for clean internal installation

Front-panel USB 3.0 & Type-C adapter

This Fervit cable converts a motherboard 19/20-pin USB 3.0 header into two rear-facing ports: one USB 3.0 Type-A and one USB Type-C. It delivers 5 Gbps SuperSpeed data for external SSDs or hard drives while maintaining backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices. The bracket occupies a single PCI-E slot opening at the back of the case.

Builders adding modern ports to older boards

Suits system integrators and DIY builders who want front-panel-style Type-C and Type-A connectivity on a chassis that lacks native headers. Not for users who require USB Power Delivery, DisplayPort alternate mode, or any video, audio or docking output from the Type-C port. Also unsuitable if the motherboard provides no 19/20-pin USB 3.0 header to connect the cable.

19/20-pin header requirement

The single specification that decides fitment is the presence of a 19/20-pin USB 3.0 header on the motherboard. Without that internal connector the cable cannot be installed, regardless of case space or operating system.

Questions about this item

What does the 5Gbps rating mean when the cable is installed in a PC?

The Type-C port delivers up to 5Gbps USB data for connected SSDs or HDDs, matching USB 3.0 Super-Speed; it falls back to 480Mbps for USB 2.0 devices and 1.5Mbps for USB 1.1 devices.

Which USB standard does the 19/20-pin header connection actually limit the ports to?

The header follows the USB 3.0 base specification, so both the Type-C and USB 3.0 ports are capped at 5Gbps Super-Speed with automatic negotiation down to 480Mbps or 1.5Mbps for older peripherals.

What motherboard header and case opening does this cable need to fit?

It plugs into a standard 19- or 20-pin internal USB 3.0 header and mounts through a PCI-E slot bracket opening at the rear of the chassis.
