DeLOCK USB cable USB Type-E Key A 20 pin plug to USB Type-C socket 50 cm

This DeLOCK cable connects an internal USB 10 Gbps Type-E Key A 20-pin header on a motherboard or PCI Express card to a panel-mount USB Type-C female connector. The Type-C connector can be secured to a slot bracket or chassis with two screws, allowing a USB port to be moved to an easily accessible external position. The cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 (formerly USB 3.1 Gen 2) data rates up to 10 Gbps and is black with a 50 cm length.

Advantages

The cable provides a direct internal connection from a USB Type-E (20 pin) header to a panel-mount USB Type-C female port, simplifying installation of an external USB-C port. It supports high-speed USB 3.2 Gen 2 transfers up to 10 Gbps and includes mounting holes for secure attachment to a bracket or chassis. The 0.5 m length balances reach and cable management inside a PC case.
