USB 2.0 header to USB 3.1 Type-E adapter
This adapter converts an available USB 2.0 motherboard header into a USB 3.1 Type-E female port. It is designed for PC builders who want to add a front-panel Type-E socket using an existing internal header. The compact unit plugs directly into the 9-pin header without extra attachments.
Check your motherboard header and data needs
Verify that your motherboard has a free USB 2.0 9-pin header before ordering. The Type-E port delivers USB 2.0 data rates up to 480Mbps from storage devices. It does not carry audio, video, docking signals, PD power or DP alt mode.
Sustained data transfer stability
A multi-layer PCB with differential signal optimisation maintains stable transmission during extended file moves. The vertical orientation avoids interference with adjacent headers. Performance remains limited to the USB 2.0 bandwidth ceiling of the source header.
