50 cm USB 3.1 Header Cable

This 50 cm cable connects a motherboard USB 3.1 front-panel header to a standard USB 3.0 Type-A male port. It suits builders adding a front-panel USB 3.0 port to a case that only provides a USB 3.1 header. The copper construction carries SuperSpeed data signals between the two different connector styles.

Check header type before ordering

Verify that your motherboard exposes a USB 3.1 front-panel header, which uses a different pin layout than the older USB 3.0 header. The cable’s Connector2 fits only the newer header keying. Ensure the 50 cm length reaches from the header location to your intended port position inside the chassis.

Steady throughput under load

The copper conductors maintain USB 3.0 signalling rates during sustained file transfers without the signal drop-off seen in longer, thinner cables. Backwards-compatible pin mapping keeps the link stable when the host negotiates 5 Gbit/s operation. The fixed 50 cm run limits insertion loss so performance stays consistent across extended sessions.

Questions about this item

Does the cable include the USB 3.1 front-panel header and USB 3.0 Type-A plug, or must I source either connector separately?

The cable arrives as a single 50 cm assembly with the USB 3.1 front-panel header on one end and a USB 3.0 Type-A male plug on the other, so no extra connectors are needed.

My motherboard has a 19-pin USB 3.0 header — will this 3.1 header cable fit it?

The 3.1 header uses the same 19-pin layout plus extra pins, so it plugs into a USB 3.0 header and runs at 3.0 speeds.

What real-world throughput can I expect when the 3.1 header cable is connected to a standard 3.0 header?

The link will negotiate at USB 3.0 rates, giving up to 5 Gbps theoretical bandwidth for attached drives or peripherals.
