USB 3.1 Front Panel Header to USB 3.0 20Pin Header Extension Cable 20cm for ASUS Motherboard

USB 3.1 require a different front panel header than USB 3.0.

The USB 3.1 port interface is using the USB 3.0 pin set and more. It is design to be backwards compatible (will explain later).

There are no official release of the specs for the USB 3.1 header yet (as of this writing),

But first motherboard with this is the ASUS ROG MAXIMUS IX FORMULA,STRIX Z270I/Z270G etc.

Length: 20cm

Connector1: USB 3.0 Front Panel Header

Connector2: USB 3.1 Front Panel Header



  • 1) Due to interface limitations‌, the Type-E interface is usually designed for single-channel output, which means it can only provide the output capability of a USB 3.0 interface. Therefore, it is not possible to directly convert two independent USB 3.0 interfaces through a Type-E interface‌.
  • 2) The Type-E port supports 10Gbps USB Data from SSD/HDD. Doesn't support any audio,video and docking output, Not work for any PD power, DP alt mode.(The transmission speed depends on the motherboard Type-E port speed, the adapter does not change the speed)
  • 3) When using a 19-pin to Type-C data cable, the Type-C interface can support USB3.0 or USB2.0 on the front, and only USB2.0 on the reverse.
  • 4) When using a 19-pin to 2 Type-A port data cable, one A port only has USB3.0 function, and the other A port only has USB2.0 function.
  • 5) When using a 19-pin to a single Type-A port data cable, it may only have USB2.0 function (no USB3.0),or it may only have USB3.0 function (no USB2.0), because each cable has different definitions, so the final USB function is different;
