External power switch for desktop PCs

The OwlTree BT292 is a push-button control unit that extends the motherboard power, reset, power-LED and HDD-LED headers to a convenient external location. It suits home users, computer labs, barebone systems and custom chassis builds where the case front panel is difficult to reach. The switch operates at five volts and is rated for 0.01 amps.

Two-metre cable with splitter options

A 2 m cable connects the switch to the motherboard headers, and the package includes both a 1-to-2 splitter board and a 1-to-2 splitter cable so the original case button can remain active alongside the new one. The housing is plastic, rated IP00, and functions from 0 to 100 degrees Celsius.

Adhesive mounting fits tight spaces

The unit measures 3.6068 cm by 8.7122 cm by 11.6078 cm and mounts with the supplied adhesive stickers, allowing placement on a desk, a drive bay opening, a rear fan vent or an expansion-slot bracket. No tools or chassis modifications are required, freeing the builder from a broken or inaccessible front-panel button.

Questions about this item

What does the 2-metre cable length mean when the button is placed on my desk?

The two-metre cable lets you position the switch up to two metres from the motherboard headers, so you can reach the power and reset buttons even if the case sits under a desk or inside a cabinet.

Which motherboard headers does the switch connect to and what does the splitter board do?

The switch plugs into the standard POWER SW, RESET SW, POWER LED and HDD LED headers; the included 1-to-2 splitter board lets the external button work alongside the original front-panel button without unplugging it.

How much space does the 3.6068 cm by 8.7122 cm by 11.6078 cm housing need for the adhesive mount?

The plastic housing measures 3.6068 cm deep, 8.7122 cm wide and 11.6078 cm tall, so you need a flat area at least that large on the case or desk for the adhesive sticker to hold securely.
