Panel Mount USB 3.1 TypeE to USB 3.0 TypeA Adapter
This 50cm CY branded extension cable converts an internal USB 3.1 TypeE motherboard header into an external USB 3.0 TypeA female port. It is designed for PC builders and system integrators who need to add a front or rear panel USB TypeA connection to a custom desktop chassis. The panel mount structure allows for a secure, fixed installation on the case exterior.
Fixed Installation Enables Clean Front Panel
The panel mount design lets you secure the USB 3.0 TypeA port directly to the chassis, creating a permanent external port without loose cables. This supports tidy internal routing and a professional finish for custom gaming PCs, workstations, or case modification projects. The 50cm length provides sufficient reach for flexible wiring inside standard ATX or MATX builds.
Verify Motherboard Header Type
Before ordering, confirm your motherboard has an available internal USB 3.1 TypeE header, as this cable will not connect to older USB 2.0 headers or standard TypeA headers. Ensure your case panel has the correct cutout dimensions for the panel mount flange, since no mounting hardware or adapter brackets are included. Buyers needing internal device connections rather than external port expansion should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item
Does the panel-mount flange need any screws or tools to stay fixed in the case cut-out?
The flange is designed to snap into a standard front-panel opening; no screws or special tools are required for a secure fit.
Will the 50 cm length reach a motherboard header at the bottom of a full-tower board?
At 50 cm the cable spans most ATX and MATX layouts, but very large boards may need a longer run to reach the lowest header.
Does the cable draw extra power or get warm when a USB 3.0 drive runs all day?
It is a passive copper link, so it adds no active power draw and stays at case temperature during continuous transfers.
