Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this USB Type-C front panel cable compatible with all motherboards?
A: This cable is designed for motherboards that feature a standard USB 2.0 2.54MM 9-pin internal header. Most desktop motherboards include this header, but please check your motherboard's manual to confirm a 9-pin USB 2.0 header is available before ordering.
Q: What is the difference between the "With Ear" and "Without Ear" Type-C female designs?
A: The "With Ear" design includes side mounting tabs (ears) on the Type-C female port, allowing it to be screwed or fastened securely into a panel cutout. The "Without Ear" design has a flush port face, suitable for snap-fit or flush-mount panel openings. Choose based on your case or enclosure's front panel cutout style.
Q: Does this cable support USB 3.0 or USB 3.1 speeds?
A: No — this cable uses the USB 2.0 9-pin internal header standard, so it supports USB 2.0 data transfer speeds (up to 480 Mbps) and basic charging. For USB 3.0 or higher speeds, a cable with a 19/20-pin USB 3.0 header would be required.
Q: Can I use this cable for charging devices through the front panel?
A: Yes. The cable supports USB 2.0 charging functionality, making it suitable for charging smartphones, earbuds, and other USB-C devices directly from your front panel port — powered by your motherboard's internal header.
