USB 3.0 20-pin header extension cable
This cable extends an internal motherboard USB 3.0 20-pin header by 1.64 feet using a female-to-female layout. It is intended for system builders who need to route a front-panel USB 3.0 connector to a header that is out of reach. The assembly is supplied new and ready for installation.
Data transfer speed up to 5 Gbps
The link operates at the USB 3.0 signalling rate of up to 5 Gbps and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices. Both ends use a 20-pin female header so the cable plugs directly between the motherboard header and the front-panel or accessory connector without adapters.
Thermals noise and power draw
As a passive copper cable it generates no audible noise and adds negligible heat inside the chassis. Power delivery follows the USB 3.0 header specification so no external supply is required and the motherboard header provides all current needed for connected devices.

Questions about this item
What does the 5Gbps rating mean once the cable is installed in a PC?
The link runs at USB 3.0 speed, giving up to 5Gbps between the motherboard header and a front-panel or drive-bay USB 3.0 device.
Which USB standard does the 20-pin header follow and what does that limit in practice?
It follows the USB 3.0 specification, so the connection is capped at 5Gbps and remains backward compatible with USB 2.0 and 1.1 devices.
What clearance or mounting points does the 1.64ft female-to-female cable need inside a case?
The cable is 1.64ft (50cm) long with a 20-pin female header at each end, so it simply plugs between the motherboard header and a matching front-panel or bracket connector.
