Small green circuit board with a USB Type-E plug and two 19/20-pin headers

Fervit

Fervit USB 3.1 Type-E 19/20Pin to Dual USB 3.0 19/20Pin Adapter

SKU CH-PKG4-S6HWY

Splits a single USB 3.1 Type-E or 19/20-pin header into two USB 3.0 19/20-pin ports at 5 Gbps using a GL3510 chipset, with optional SATA power for 5 V 2 A output

  • 5 Gbps throughput with USB 3.1 Gen 1 compliance
  • GL3510 chipset enables full 5 Gbps bandwidth utilisation
  • Optional SATA power delivers up to 5 V 2 A
  • Dual 19/20-pin headers support two front-panel USB 3.0 devices
  • Accepts Type-E, 19/20-pin header or Micro-USB 3.0 input

Front-panel adapter for dual USB 3.0 headers

This Fervit adapter splits a single USB 3.1 Type-E or 19/20-pin motherboard header into two USB 3.0 19/20-pin female ports. It is built for PC builders who need to connect multiple front-panel devices such as hubs, card readers or extra USB ports from one internal header. The GL3510 chipset manages the split while maintaining backward compatibility with USB 2.0 and USB 1.1 devices.

5 Gbps bandwidth shared across two ports

The adapter supports a 5 Gbps data rating compliant with USB 3.1 Gen 1 and USB 3.0 specifications. That total bandwidth is shared between the two output headers, so simultaneous heavy transfers on both ports will divide the available throughput. An optional SATA power connection can supply up to 5 V 2 A for devices that need more current than the header alone provides; the SATA cable is not included.

Passive PCB design with no active cooling

The unit is a bare printed-circuit assembly without a fan or heatsink, so it adds no audible noise to the build. Power draw is limited to the 5 V supply from the motherboard header or the optional SATA feed, producing minimal heat under normal front-panel workloads. Ensure the motherboard header and any attached SATA connector can deliver the required current for connected peripherals.

Questions about this item

Will the Fervit adapter let me keep my existing USB 3.0 19/20-pin front-panel ports while adding a second header?

Yes, the adapter takes one Type-E or 19/20-pin header input and splits it into two USB 3.0 19/20-pin female outputs, so both original and new front-panel devices can run from the same motherboard connector.

How can I verify the GL3510 chipset is delivering 5 Gbps after installation?

Connect a USB 3.0 storage device to either output port and check the transfer speed in the operating system; sustained reads near 5 Gbps confirm the GL3510 is operating at its rated USB 3.1 Gen 1 bandwidth.

Does the package include a SATA power cable for the optional 5 V 2 A supplemental feed?

The adapter board itself is supplied, but the SATA power cable needed to draw up to 5 V 2 A from a PC SATA connector is not included and must be purchased separately.
