USB 2.0 header splitter for internal expansion
This adapter converts a single motherboard USB 2.0 9-pin header into two male ports, letting you connect additional front-panel or internal devices. It supports Windows from XP to 10, Mac OS X, Linux and Chrome OS with no driver installation required. The 30 cm cable length suits standard chassis layouts.
Passive thermals and low power draw
The splitter draws 5 V directly from the header and signals activity through a built-in LED indicator. No active cooling or external power is needed, so it adds negligible heat and zero audible noise inside the case. Data rates reach 480 Mbps on USB 2.0 and 12 Mbps on USB 1.1 links.
Replaces a single-header bottleneck
Builders who have exhausted the lone USB 2.0 header on a board can add a second device without occupying a rear I/O slot. The 180-degree connector and magnetic foot pad allow flexible routing along the case floor. Buyers needing more than two ports or faster 5 Gbps speeds will require a different solution.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 9-pin USB 2.0 header splitter and the 30cm 2*5P cable inside my case?
Plug the single 9-pin male connector into the motherboard header, attach the two 2*5P cables to front-panel ports, connect the SATA cable for power, and stick the magnet foot pad to the case floor; the step often missed is forgetting the SATA power link so the 5V LED stays dark.
What maintenance or replacement will the magnet foot pad and LED indicator need over time?
The magnet foot pad can be repositioned repeatedly but may lose grip if dust builds up — wipe the case floor and pad base; the 5V LED is soldered on the hub board and cannot be swapped separately, so a dead light means replacing the whole hub.
What is the first limit I hit under sustained use with the 480Mbps USB 2.0 hub?
The shared 480Mbps bandwidth across both ports is the bottleneck — heavy simultaneous transfers on the two 2*5P cables will saturate the link before any thermal or power limit appears.
