Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which motherboards is this 9-pin header extension cable compatible with?
A: This extension cable is designed to work with standard ATX motherboards that use a 9-pin front panel header. It consolidates Power SW, Reset SW, PLED, and HDD LED connections, making it compatible with the vast majority of desktop ATX, Micro-ATX, and Mini-ITX motherboards on the market.
Q: Which cable length should I choose — 20 cm, 30 cm, or 50 cm?
A: For standard mid-tower cases, the 20 cm or 30 cm cable is usually sufficient. If you have a full-tower case, a case with an unusually long front-panel-to-motherboard distance, or you simply want extra routing flexibility, the 50 cm option provides the most slack. Measure your case's internal distance from the front panel connector area to the motherboard header before ordering for the best fit.
Q: Will this cable help with cable management inside my PC case?
A: Yes. The flat ribbon design keeps your internal wiring neat and low-profile, reducing clutter around the motherboard header area. It also lets you route cables along case edges and behind panels more easily than individual loose wires, helping to improve both aesthetics and airflow.
Q: Is there a tolerance in the cable length?
A: Due to manual production processes, a deviation of up to ±5 mm from the stated length may exist. This is within normal manufacturing tolerance and will not affect the cable's functionality or fit.
