Connection type

This cable bridges a USB 3.1 front-panel header on the motherboard to a standard USB 3.0 Type-A female port. It is intended for builders who need to bring a front-panel USB 3.0 connection to a newer header design. The 50cm length suits typical chassis routing.

Installation notes

The panel-mount Type-A end secures to a case cut-out with screws or a bracket not included. The header connector plugs directly into the motherboard's USB 3.1 front-panel header; no drivers are required. Alignment can be tight on some boards, so verify the keying before applying force.

Who should buy

Suits system integrators adding a USB 3.0 front port to motherboards with the early USB 3.1 header layout such as the ROG Maximus IX Formula or Strix Z270 boards. Not for cases lacking a panel-mount opening or for users needing a USB 3.1 Gen 2 Type-C front-port connection.
