DELOCK PC Front Panel Switch Module with Power and Reset Buttons

The DELOCK front panel PC power and reset switch module provides two clearly identified push-buttons for power (on/off) and reset functions. Designed for connection to standard motherboard front-panel headers, this compact module is intended as a direct replacement or upgrade for internal case switches. It simplifies wiring inside the chassis and offers a reliable manual interface for powering the system and performing restarts during maintenance, testing, or troubleshooting.

Advantages

The module combines a power button and a reset button in a single small housing that mounts at the front of a PC case, reducing cable clutter and making it easier to access both controls. Its compatibility with standard motherboard front-panel connectors ensures straightforward installation without special adapters. The simple mechanical push-button design minimizes points of failure and is suitable for repeated use during system setup or diagnostics.

Suitable for

• Replacing worn or non-functioning front-panel power/reset switches
• System assembly, bench testing and motherboard troubleshooting
• Small form-factor or custom PC cases where compact front-panel controls are required
• Workstations and test rigs that require easy manual power cycling

Key specifications

• Functions: Power (on/off) button and Reset button
• Interface: Standard two-pin front-panel header wiring to motherboard
• Form factor: Compact front-panel module suitable for PC case installation
• Operation: Mechanical push-buttons
• Use environment: Internal PC chassis component for desktop and test systems

How to use

Power and reset wires from the module are connected to the corresponding pins on the motherboard front-panel header according to the motherboard manual. After mounting the module in the desired front-panel opening, verify polarity and pin assignments before powering the system. Use the power button to switch the system on or off and the reset button to perform a manual restart. During assembly or troubleshooting, keep extra care to route the wires away from fans and moving parts to avoid damage.

Recommendations

Confirm the motherboard front-panel header pinout in the motherboard documentation before installation, and power down the system and disconnect mains power when connecting or replacing the module. If the case opening does not match the module dimensions, use appropriate mounting hardware or modify the panel carefully to avoid stressing the assembly.
