Darkside Computer Modding 3-Pin 30cm M/F Fan Sleeved Cable Graphite Metallic DS-0241

SKU CH-T9CW-ENX3P

Connects a 3-pin fan to the motherboard with a 30 cm graphite metallic sleeved extension

  • Cable Length1 ft.
  • Extends fan reach by 30 cm for flexible routing
  • Graphite Metallic HD sleeve adds clean visual accent inside the case
  • 3-pin male-to-female connector ensures simple plug-and-play installation
  • 12-inch length fits mid-tower and full-tower builds alike
  • Single cable in box keeps packaging minimal and installation quick

Extension Cable for Three-Pin Fans

This 30 cm sleeved cable extends the connection between a three-pin fan and a motherboard header or fan controller. The graphite metallic sleeve matches dark-themed builds while protecting the conductors inside. It is intended for modders and builders who need a short, tidy link without excess slack.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

The cable carries only the low-current signal and power lines required by a three-pin fan, so it adds no measurable heat or noise to the system. Voltage drop over the 30 cm length is negligible for typical fan loads. Power draw remains entirely dependent on the attached fan.

Build Quality and Daily Use

A custom high-density graphite metallic sleeve covers the full length, resisting abrasion and keeping the wire bundle flexible for routing behind motherboard trays. The male and female three-pin connectors seat firmly and release with a light squeeze. One cable is included, so builders needing multiple extensions must order additional units.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 30 cm 3-pin extension to my existing fan header without reversing the polarity?

Align the keyed tab on the female connector with the notch on the fan header, then push the male end onto the motherboard 3-pin header until it clicks.

Will the graphite metallic HD sleeve need cleaning or replacement after long-term use inside a case?

The sleeve is a fixed part of the cable; dust can be removed with compressed air, but the sleeve itself is not designed to be removed or replaced separately.

At what cable length does voltage drop become noticeable on a 3-pin fan extension?

At 30 cm the resistance is low enough that typical 12 V fans see no measurable speed loss from the extension alone.
