This USB 2.0 motherboard header to U-shaped USB-C cable is designed for desktop PC case upgrades, front-panel modifications and custom internal computer installations.
The cable features a USB 2.0 9-pin motherboard header female connector at one end and a compact U-shaped 90-degree USB Type-C male connector at the other. The return-angle connector positions the cable alongside the USB-C plug, helping reduce installation depth and improve routing in very restricted spaces.
The motherboard connector uses a 10-position housing with one blocked or unused position, commonly described as a USB 2.0 9-pin header connector. It carries standard USB 2.0 power and data connections from a compatible motherboard header.
The cable is suitable for applications where a straight USB-C connector would require too much clearance or place excessive strain on the cable.
