3-Piece USB 3.1 Type-E Adapter Kit

This kit provides three internal adapters that convert a motherboard Type-E header into USB-A, USB-C or extended Type-E front-panel ports. It is designed for PC builders and upgraders who need to match a modern motherboard header to a mismatched case front panel.

Suits DIY builds with USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-E headers

Builders using standard 20-pin Type-E headers on mainstream boards can connect legacy USB-A panels, newer USB-C panels or extend the header itself. It is not suited for systems that lack an internal Type-E header or for cases requiring proprietary front-panel connectors not covered by the three included adapters.

Up to 10Gbps over USB 3.1 Gen2

Each adapter supports the 10Gbps Gen2 specification and remains backward compatible with 3.0 and 2.0 devices. The 90° angled plugs and gold-plated contacts fit tight chassis spaces while maintaining reliable signal integrity.

Questions about this item

Does the 10Gbps Type-E adapter kit generate noticeable heat or noise during all-day file transfers?

No, the passive gold-plated adapters have no active components, so they run silently and add negligible heat inside the case.

What motherboard header must I already have for the 20Pin Type-E connectors to work?

A standard USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-E 20Pin front-panel header on the motherboard is required for plug-and-play operation.

Will the right-angle 90° plugs fit alongside older USB 3.0 or 2.0 front-panel cables in a tight chassis?

Yes, the compact angled design avoids interference with neighbouring headers and works with legacy USB 3.0 and 2.0 devices through backward compatibility.
