Compact 9-pin to 20-pin adapter

This LORDWORLD adapter converts a motherboard USB 2.0 9-pin header into a 20-pin Type-E front-panel port. The 180-degree slim profile measures 24 by 13 by 5 mm to avoid interference with nearby headers or chassis parts. Two adapters are included in the pack.

Builders adding a Type-E front port

Suits anyone who wants a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-E connector on the case front but only has a spare 9-pin USB 2.0 header on the board. Not for users who need full USB 3.2 Gen 1 transfer speeds, because the link remains limited to USB 2.0 rates.

USB 2.0 speed over a Type-E connector

The single deciding specification is that the Type-E port operates at USB 2.0 transfer rates only. The adapter physically converts the header but does not increase bandwidth beyond what the 9-pin header already provides.
