Shenzhen Shenzhong TECH. CO. LTD. USB 3.1 Front Panel Header to USB-C Female Cable 40cm

SKU CH-QYV4-MQFC6

Adds a front-panel USB-C port to a USB 3.1 header using a 40 cm cable with panel-mount screws

  • Connector TypeUSB A to USB B
  • Add USB-C front-panel access with a 40 cm cable
  • Connect modern USB-C devices to a 3.1 header
  • Female Type-C port includes panel-mount screws
  • 40 cm length fits most case layouts
  • Extends internal header to an external USB-C port

Front-panel USB-C access

This 40 cm cable connects a motherboard USB 3.1 front-panel header to a Type-C female port that mounts in a case cut-out. Builders adding a modern USB-C front port to an older chassis use it to bridge the internal header without replacing the board. The short length keeps routing tidy inside compact enclosures. It is not for systems that lack a USB 3.1 header or for external device charging.

Signal integrity on a short run

At 40 cm the trace stays well within USB 3.1 electrical limits so sustained transfers hold rated bandwidth without the drop-off seen on longer extensions. The direct header-to-panel path avoids extra junctions that can add jitter during large file moves. Builders running backups or disk imaging see consistent throughput across the whole session. It does not add active signal conditioning for runs beyond the supplied length.

Passive thermal profile

The cable carries only signal and bus power so it generates no measurable heat and needs no airflow. Connectors are moulded strain-relief types that stay secure under normal case vibration. No fan, pump or active cooling is involved and the assembly adds negligible load to the motherboard header power budget. It is not suited for high-current charging applications beyond the header specification.

Questions about this item

Does the 40 cm USB 3.1 front-panel header cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power when left connected all day?

The passive 40 cm cable carries only the signals and power the port negotiates, so it adds no measurable heat or idle draw during continuous use.

My motherboard must already have which specific internal header for this cable to plug in?

The cable requires a standard USB 3.1 19-pin front-panel header on the motherboard; without that header the connector cannot be attached.

Will the USB 3.1 Type-C female port work correctly with older USB 2.0 devices I still use?

Yes, the USB 3.1 interface is backward compatible, so legacy USB 2.0 peripherals will function at their normal speeds when plugged into the Type-C female port.
