Black metal 5.25 inch front panel with six USB ports

Vszerda

Vszerda 5.25" Front Panel 6-Port USB Hub (2×3.0, 4×2.0) Black Metal

SKU CH-V3F3-PZF34

Adds two USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 ports to a 5.25-inch bay using motherboard headers and a Molex power connector

  • Adds six front USB ports using a single 5.25" bay
  • Two USB 3.0 ports deliver up to 5Gbps transfer speed
  • Four USB 2.0 ports run at 480Mbps for peripherals
  • Connects via 20-pin and 10-pin motherboard headers
  • Includes Molex power for high-draw devices

Front-bay USB hub for desktop PCs

The Vszerda 5.25-inch front panel converts a single CD-ROM bay into six front-facing USB ports. Two ports run at USB 3.0 speeds and four at USB 2.0 speeds. A 2.6 ft adapter cable connects the panel to one USB 3.0 20-pin header and one USB 2.0 10-pin header on the motherboard. A Molex 4-pin power connector supplies extra current for demanding peripherals. The unit is plug-and-play on Windows XP through 8.1.

Builders with a free 5.25-inch bay

This hub suits anyone who wants fast, front-access ports without opening the case. It requires one USB 3.0 20-pin header and one USB 2.0 10-pin header simultaneously; systems lacking either header cannot use the corresponding ports. Builders whose cases have no 5.25-inch bay, or who prefer rear-only connectivity, will not benefit from this panel.

Two USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 Type-A ports

The decisive specification is the port mix: exactly two USB 3.0 Type-A sockets and four USB 2.0 Type-A sockets. USB 3.0 delivers up to 5 Gbps transfer rates while USB 2.0 tops out at 480 Mbps. If your workflow needs more than two high-speed ports or more than four legacy ports, this panel does not match the requirement.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy any cables or screws separately?

The hub includes a 2.6ft adapter cable with both 20-pin USB 3.0 and 10-pin USB 2.0 motherboard connectors, plus a Molex 4-pin power lead and mounting screws. No extra parts are required.

Should I pick a different version if my motherboard only has a 10-pin USB 2.0 header?

This single model needs both a 20-pin USB 3.0 header and a 10-pin USB 2.0 header to enable all six ports. If your board lacks the 20-pin header, the two USB 3.0 ports will not function.

What does the 5Gbps headline speed mean when I plug in a USB 3.0 drive?

The two USB 3.0 Type-A ports support up to 5Gbps theoretical bandwidth; real-world transfer rates depend on the drive, cable quality and system load, but will not exceed that ceiling.
