Fervit USB 3.1 Type-C Female to USB 2.0 9/10-pin Header Adapter 480Mbps

SKU CH-0DEF-18YR0

Converts a motherboard 9/10-pin USB 2.0 header to an external USB-C port at 480Mbps with 5V/500ma power

  • Add a USB-C port to your case using an internal USB 2.0 header
  • Works with both 9-pin and 10-pin motherboard connectors
  • Delivers up to 480 Mbps data transfer speed
  • Provides 5 V 500 mA power for charging or peripherals
  • No PD, video or audio support — pure USB 2.0 functionality

Internal USB 2.0 to USB-C conversion

This adapter connects a motherboard 9-pin or 10-pin USB 2.0 header to an external USB Type-C female port. It is intended for builders who want a front-panel USB-C socket without a native USB-C header. The device provides a single port for data and charging. It does not support Power Delivery, video or audio functions.

Sustained data and power limits

The link operates at USB 2.0 speeds up to 480 Mbps and supplies a maximum of 5 V at 500 mA. These limits remain constant during extended transfers or continuous charging. Performance does not scale with the USB 3.1 designation on the connector. Heavy workloads stay within the USB 2.0 electrical and throughput envelope.

PCB build and header compatibility

The unit is assembled on a compact printed circuit board with standard 9-pin and 10-pin header layouts. High-quality electronic components are used throughout. The board mounts directly onto the motherboard header and presents a single USB-C cutout for chassis integration. No additional cables or brackets are required for installation.

Questions about this item

Does the adapter draw noticeable heat or power when a device is plugged in all day?

It passes at most 5V/500mA from the motherboard header, so heat and power draw stay very low even with continuous use.

What must my motherboard already have for this adapter to work?

A free 9-pin or 10-pin internal USB 2.0 header is required; the adapter plugs directly onto it.

Will this work with older USB 2.0 flash drives and peripherals I still use?

Yes — the adapter provides a USB 2.0 480Mbps Type-C port, so legacy USB 2.0 devices function normally.
