The pack contains one cable.

Advantages

The cable provides a compact internal connection solution for systems where a 19-pin USB 3.0 header must be adapted to a 9-pin USB 2.0 connector. It supports standard USB 2.0 and USB 3.2 Gen 1 physical interfaces, offers straightforward installation in tight chassis spaces thanks to its 0.3 m length, and is manufactured by Akasa to match common motherboard header layouts.
