24-pin to 6-pin ATX adapter for Dell systems
This cable converts a standard 24-pin ATX power supply connector to the proprietary 6-pin motherboard connector used in specific Dell Optiplex and Inspiron desktops. It enables the use of an off-the-shelf PSU in compatible small-form-factor or tower models. The adapter is built with 18AWG tinned copper conductors and alloy terminals for stable current delivery.
Installation notes and common pitfalls
Connect the 24-pin end to the ATX power supply and the 6-pin end to the Dell motherboard; the 30 cm length fits typical chassis routing. A critical behaviour to note: when attached to these Dell boards the power supply remains live even after the system is shut down, so the fan keeps spinning until the mains cable is removed. The supplier warns that connecting this adapter to any non-listed motherboard or Dell workstation can burn or damage the board.
Suitable for Dell Optiplex and Inspiron owners.
This adapter suits owners of the listed Optiplex 3050, 3060, 3080, 3668, 5050, 5060, 5080, 7040, 7050, 7060, 7070, 7080 and Inspiron 3470 systems plus compatible Vostro models that use a 6-pin power port. Builders working with Dell workstation motherboards or any board not explicitly listed should look elsewhere, as the pinout is incompatible and damage will occur.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the 24-pin to 6-pin adapter is delivering power correctly to my Dell Optiplex 7050 after installation?
The PSU fan will spin continuously even when the computer is off; only unplugging the mains cable stops it, which confirms the adapter is live.
What components are included and do I need any extra cables to connect a standard ATX supply to a Dell Inspiron 3470?
Only the 30 cm 18AWG adapter is supplied; your existing ATX power supply and its mains lead provide everything else.
Which Dell models from the compatibility list use the 6-pin motherboard connector this cable fits?
Optiplex 3050, 3060, 3080, 3668, 5050, 5060, 5080, 7040, 7050, 7060, 7070, 7080 and Inspiron 3470, plus listed Vostro models.
