Single-header adapter for front-panel USB 3.0
This adapter converts one motherboard USB 3.0 19/20-pin header into two 19/20-pin sockets and one Type-E socket. It lets builders connect multiple front-panel ports, hubs or card readers from a single internal connection. The board draws auxiliary power through an included SATA cable. It suits PC assemblers who need extra internal USB 3.0 headers without adding a controller card.
USB 3.0 bandwidth shared across all ports
The link runs at USB 3.0 speed up to 5 Gbps, which is 10 times faster than USB 2.0. Total throughput is divided between the three output sockets, so simultaneous transfers on multiple devices will share the available bandwidth. The adapter supports two-way data transmission at the same time. Cable quality and motherboard implementation determine the real-world rate.
Replaces a single-header limitation
It upgrades a board that provides only one internal USB 3.0 header, removing the need to choose between a front-panel port and an internal device. The jump is worth it when a case offers two USB 3.0 ports or a Type-E connector but the motherboard lacks matching headers. It does not add new controller lanes, so total bandwidth stays at the single-header maximum.

Questions about this item
Should I pick a single 19-pin or 20-pin header for my motherboard USB 3.0 port?
The adapter accepts either a 19-pin or 20-pin motherboard header and splits it into two 20-pin sockets plus a Type-E socket, so match the header your board provides.
What does the 5 Gbps rating mean when I plug in two front-panel ports?
The 5 Gbps bandwidth is shared across both 20-pin outputs and the Type-E port; simultaneous transfers divide the throughput between active devices.
Does the SATA power cable affect the USB 3.0 data speed?
The SATA power connector only supplies extra current for attached devices; it does not change the 5 Gbps USB 3.0 data rate.
