Front-panel media hub for 5.25 inch bay

This front-panel dashboard fits a standard 5.25 inch optical-drive bay and adds two USB 3.0 hub ports, six USB 2.0 hub ports, an eSATA interface, a 6-in-1 card reader and front-panel audio jacks. It connects to the motherboard through a PCI-E interface and draws power from a SATA 15-pin or 4-pin connector.

Suits builders who want legacy card support

The hub reads SD, MMC, CF, MD, MS, XD, TF and M2 cards, making it useful for older media workflows. It does not suit users who need internal SATA drive bays, additional PCIe lanes, or modern high-speed card formats beyond the listed types.

Two USB 3.0 hub ports at 5.0 Gbps

The two USB 3.0 host ports deliver up to 5.0 Gbps transfer speed and remain downward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices. This single spec determines whether the panel meets your front-panel bandwidth needs.
