Jet Black 3-Pin Fan Extension

This 40 cm sleeved cable extends a 3-pin fan connection inside a PC case. The male-to-female layout lets you route the lead behind a motherboard tray or along a cable channel. Jet Black sheathing keeps the look consistent with dark-themed builds. It suits modders who need a short, tidy link between fan and header.

Steady Signal Over Full Length

The 1.3 ft run carries the fan’s tachometer and PWM lines without added resistance that would alter speed reporting. Copper conductors are sized for the low current a typical case fan draws, so voltage drop stays negligible. The fixed 40 cm length avoids coiled slack that can pick up electromagnetic noise. Builders who need a longer reach must join multiple cables or choose a different part.

Low Heat, Silent Operation

The cable itself generates no heat and adds no audible noise to the system. Its thin profile improves airflow by reducing clutter around intake and exhaust paths. Power draw is limited to the fan’s own rating, with no extra overhead from the extension. Users wanting RGB illumination or a heavier gauge for high-current devices should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Does the 40 cm cable add noticeable heat or resistance when the fan runs all day?

The 40 cm length adds negligible resistance, so the fan draws the same power and produces no extra heat during continuous operation.

What connectors must already be on my motherboard or fan for this 3-pin cable to work?

You need a standard 3-pin fan header on the motherboard and a matching 3-pin plug on the fan.

Will this jet-black sleeved cable fit alongside older 3-pin fans without blocking adjacent headers?

The slim 3-pin connectors and flexible sleeving keep the profile low, so it sits cleanly next to older fans and nearby headers.
