Style 2 Pack

  • Keeps an older motherboard usable by converting a 9-pin header to a 20-pin Type-E socket
  • 180-degree slim profile measuring 24 by 13 by 5 mm prevents clearance issues inside the chassis
  • Plug-and-play installation requires no drivers or extra configuration for immediate use
  • Supports USB 3.1 and 3.2 Gen 1 speeds through the Type-E connection for fast internal data transfer
  • Two adapters included so you can upgrade multiple front-panel ports at once

USB 2.0 to Type-E adapter 2-pack

This pair of adapters converts a motherboard USB 2.0 9-pin header into a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-E female socket. Builders upgrading an older board can add front-panel USB-C connectivity without replacing the platform. The kit includes two identical units for dual-port cases or spare parts.

Passive conversion with slim 180-degree profile

Each adapter measures 24 by 13 by 5 mm and bends 180 degrees to clear tight header surroundings. No active components draw extra power and the passive wiring adds negligible resistance. The black housing matches standard internal cabling for a clean install.

Steady throughput for front-panel Type-C ports

Under continuous file transfers the link runs at USB 3.2 Gen 1 speeds limited by the source header bandwidth. Latency stays consistent because the path is purely electrical with no protocol translation. The design suits sustained backup drives or docks rather than burst-only peripherals.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the 24 mm long adapter into the 20-pin Type-E header without blocking nearby components?

Align the keyed A-Key female socket with the motherboard's 20-pin header, then press the 180-degree slim body straight down; the 0.94 x 0.51 x 0.19 in form factor clears tight chassis spaces.

Will the 9-pin side need a driver update or firmware flash after installation?

No, the adapter is a passive plug-and-play device; once seated on the 9-pin USB 2.0 header it works immediately without software changes.

What speed ceiling appears first when I run large file transfers continuously through this adapter?

The USB 2.0 9-pin header limits sustained throughput to USB 2.0 rates, so the Type-E connector's higher capability cannot be used.
