USB 3.2 Gen 1 to Gen 2 header adapter

This vertical adapter converts a motherboard USB 3.0 19-pin internal header into a USB 3.1 20-pin front-panel header. It is designed for PC builders and technicians who need to connect a modern USB Type-C front panel to an older motherboard that lacks the newer header. The unit supports Windows XP through Windows 10, Mac and Linux without requiring driver installation.

Premium black PCB with self-adhesive tape

The adapter uses a premium high-performance black PCB measuring 23 by 11 by 19.5 millimetres and weighing .009 kilograms. Connector A is a USB 3.0 19/20-pin male housing header for the motherboard, while Connector B is a USB 3.1 A-Key 20-pin female header for the front panel. A self-adhesive tape strip is included to help secure the small vertical module inside the chassis during assembly.

Verify motherboard header

Confirm the motherboard provides a USB 3.0 19-pin internal header; the adapter will not work with a USB 2.0 IDC connector. The supplier notes that the unit must be installed step by step to avoid shorting pins and potential motherboard damage. Remove the power cable and wait 10 seconds before beginning installation to ensure no residual power remains on the header.
