External Power Switch for Desktop Computers
The MEIRIYFA extension cable adds a remote power button with a two‑metre lead, letting you turn a desktop on or off without reaching the chassis. It connects to the motherboard front‑panel headers using a ten‑connector adapter that carries power switch, reset switch and both LED signals. The compact button unit weighs 30 g and measures 6.5 cm by 3 cm, so it sits unobtrusively on a desk or can be fixed with the supplied adhesive pads.
Replacing a Broken or Inaccessible Front‑Panel
This cable replaces a faulty case power button or solves the problem of a tower hidden under a desk, inside a cabinet or built into a custom water‑cooled chassis. The mechanical key‑switch is rated for five million actuations, giving a crisp click and long service life compared with standard membrane switches. Installation only requires plugging the labelled leads onto the motherboard pins and routing the cable through a rear opening, secured with the included ties.
Limits of the Front‑Panel Header Interface
Functionality depends entirely on the motherboard’s front‑panel pin layout; the adapter cannot add features the board does not expose, such as additional USB or audio ports. Cable length is fixed at two metres, so the button must remain within that radius of the chassis. The lightweight shielding is adequate for the low‑voltage signalling involved but offers no protection against high‑current power conductors.

Questions about this item
What motherboard connectors does the 10-pin adapter provide for the power and reset switches?
The included adapter breaks out POWER LED+, POWER LED-, POWER SW, RESET SW and HDD LED+ pins for direct connection to the motherboard front-panel header.
Which installation step is most often missed when fitting the external button?
Buyers frequently forget to plug the HDD LED+ lead into the motherboard, so the external button shows no drive-activity light.
How many actuations is the mechanical switch rated for before replacement?
The switch uses a mechanical keyboard key rated to 5000000 clicks, so the button itself should not need replacing in normal use.
