  • Add a front-panel USB-C port with a 40 cm cable
  • Connects to a USB 3.1 motherboard header directly
  • Panel-mount screw secures the Type-C female jack
  • Backwards compatible with USB 3.0 pin layout
  • Tested on early Z270 boards such as Maximus IX Formula

USB 3.1 Front Panel Adapter

This 40 cm cable converts a motherboard USB 3.1 front panel header into a panel mounted USB C female port. It adds a modern Type C connector to a chassis that only provides the older header. Builders upgrading a front panel or adding a new port will use this link. The screw mount secures the connector in a standard cutout.

For USB 3.1 Header Owners

Suits owners of motherboards equipped with the newer USB 3.1 front panel header such as early Z270 boards. The pin arrangement matches the revised header specification. Builders whose board only offers a USB 3.0 header cannot use this cable because the pinout differs. Buyers who need an internal Type A port or a longer reach should look at a different adapter.

Header Compatibility Decides Fit

The single specification that decides whether this is the right part is the motherboard front panel header type. Only a USB 3.1 header with the extended pin set will connect correctly. A USB 3.0 header lacks the additional pins required by this cable. Check the board manual for the exact header label before ordering.
