USB 3.0 19/20-pin to USB 2.0 adapter

This 12 cm internal cable converts a USB 3.0 19-pin or 20-pin male header into a USB 2.0 9-pin or 10-pin female connector. It allows a front-panel device with a USB 3.0 header to plug into a motherboard that only provides USB 2.0 headers. Data throughput is limited to 480 Mbps. The cable weighs 6 g and ships as a single unit.

Compatibility check before ordering

Verify that your front-panel device uses a 19-pin or 20-pin USB 3.0 male header and that the motherboard offers a 9-pin or 10-pin USB 2.0 header box. Confirm the 12 cm length reaches between the two headers inside your chassis. No external power or drivers are required for the connection.

Upgrade path and limitations

The adapter lets you reuse a USB 3.0 front-panel device on an older motherboard without USB 3.0 headers. The connection will operate at USB 2.0 speeds, so it is not suited for builds that need full USB 3.0 bandwidth. Buyers who need native USB 3.0 performance should use a motherboard with a matching 19-pin or 20-pin header.
