USB 2.0 to 3.2 Gen 1 Header Adapter

This adapter converts a motherboard USB 2.0 9-pin header into a Type-E female connector so a front-panel USB-C port can be attached. It is aimed at PC builders whose board lacks a native 20-pin Type-E header but who want to use a case with a USB-C front port. The pack contains two black-silver adapters measuring 13×24×8 mm each.

Suits builders adding USB-C front panels to older

The adapter works with Windows, Linux and Mac OS and requires no driver installation. It is not suited to systems that already provide a native Type-E header or to buyers who need the full bandwidth of a USB 3.2 Gen 1 connection on the front port.

Transfer speed limited to 480 Mbps by USB 2.0 header

Because the source header is USB 2.0, the front-panel USB-C port cannot exceed 480 Mbps regardless of the Type-E connector rating. This single constraint decides whether the adapter meets the performance requirement of the build.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and is anything else needed?

The package contains two 9-pin male to USB 3.1 Type-E female converters, each measuring 13×24×8 mm and weighing .11 oz. No extra cables or drivers are required for installation.

Which version should I pick for a motherboard with a USB 2.0 9-pin header?

This adapter is built for a USB 2.0 9-pin header and presents a USB 3.1 Type-E (A-Key) female port, so it matches motherboards that only have the older 9-pin interface.

What real-world speed will the front-panel USB-C port deliver?

Because the adapter connects through a USB 2.0 9-pin header, the front-panel USB-C port is limited to 480 Mbps maximum transfer speed.
