  • Powered from motherboard USB header or PSU SATA header via jumper block
  • Includes 2.6ft USB-C male to Type-E cable for header connection

5.25″ USB 3.2 front-panel hub

This hub adds four USB 3.2 Gen 2 ports to a 5.25″ drive bay. Two ports are USB Type-C and two are USB Type-A, each rated for up to 10 Gbps data transfer. It connects to the motherboard via a USB 3.1 20-pin Type-E header and includes a 2.6 ft cable. A jumper block lets you choose between header power or a PSU SATA power connector for the hub.

Builders adding fast front USB to a desktop

Suits PC builders who have a spare 5.25″ bay and a motherboard with a USB 3.1 20-pin Type-E header and want both Type-C and Type-A ports at 10 Gbps. Not suited for systems that lack a Type-E header or have no 5.25″ bay available. Buyers needing more than four ports or a different mounting style should look at other solutions.

Simple bay install with header and power choice

Installation slides the unit into a standard 5.25″ bay and secures it with screws. The 2.6 ft Type-C to Type-E cable plugs into the motherboard header. The jumper block selects power from the header or a PSU SATA connector. Common issues are forgetting to set the jumper for the chosen power source or finding the header cable too short for large cases.

Questions about this item

Does my motherboard need a USB 3.1 20-pin Type-E header for this hub to work?

Yes, a USB 3.1 20-pin Type-E header is required to connect the 2.6 ft cable and enable both Type-C ports at 10 Gbps.

Will my existing USB 3.0 devices run at full speed when plugged into this 10 Gbps hub?

They will work but are limited to their own 5 Gbps maximum; the hub itself supports up to 10 Gbps on all four ports.

How can I verify each port is delivering 10 Gbps after installation?

Connect a 10 Gbps-capable drive, transfer a large file and check that sustained read or write speeds exceed 5 Gbps in your OS transfer dialog or benchmark tool.
