Converts a motherboard USB 2.0 header to a USB 3.1 Type-E port for 480 Mbps data from SSDs or HDDs

  • Converts a USB 2.0 motherboard header into a USB 3.1 Type-E connector
  • Type-E port delivers USB 2.0 data rates up to 480 Mbps from SSD or HDD
  • No audio, video, docking, PD power or DP alt mode supported on the Type-E port
  • Compact design plugs directly into any USB 2.0 header with no extra attachments
  • Vertical layout avoids interference with nearby components while multi-layer PCB optimises signal stability

Header Conversion

This Fervit adapter converts a motherboard USB 2.0 9-pin header into a USB 3.1 Type-E female port. The compact .49ft cable plugs directly into the mainboard without extra attachments. It adds a front-panel USB-C style connector to systems lacking one.

Suited Builders

Ideal for PC builders who need a Type-E front-panel socket but only have a USB 2.0 header available. The multi-layer PCB uses differential signal optimization for stable data transfers up to 480Mbps. Not suitable for users who require video output, docking functions or Power Delivery charging through the port.

Speed Limit

The Type-E connector operates at USB 2.0 speeds with a maximum of 480Mbps despite the USB 3.1 header form factor. It does not support audio, video, DP alt mode or any PD power profiles. Buyers needing full USB 3.1 bandwidth must verify their motherboard provides a native high-speed header.

Questions about this item

Does this adapter work with every USB 2.0 header on my motherboard?

The compact adapter plugs directly into any standard USB 2.0 9-pin header and requires no extra brackets or cables.

What actual data speed will I see through the Type-E port?

The port is limited to USB 2.0 signalling, so the maximum throughput is 480Mbps even though the connector is a USB 3.1 Type-E key-A socket.

Can the Type-E connector carry video, audio or Power Delivery?

No, the adapter explicitly states the Type-E port does not support audio, video, docking output, PD power or DP alt mode.
