## Description

6in usb f/f motherboard header cable

Review: Great to conceal USB sticks you don't want tampered with - I have installed this dongle with no issues into my server build. I'm running unraid on that system which boots from a USB drive. I didn't want the USB stick to be tampered with from the exterior of the case and decided to use this so there USB stick could be concealed within the case. So far have I've been running with this attachment for a year with no issues. Would certainly recommend for anyone else that needs to have USB-A access within their case.
Review: Another quality product - Startech has yet to ever disappoint me. I know cables are pretty basic but startech offers all sorts of cables. Particularly very short ones that help with cable management. This particular item works as advertised so far and seems well constructed just like anything else I've gotten from them over the years.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is the voltage output on the USB side?**
A: Hi, This cable does not determine what the voltage is however USB controllers should be 5 volts.Let us know if you have any other questions.Thank you, StephaneCustomer SupportStarTech.com

**Q: Will this work on a car stereo**
A: USBMBADAPT will work on devices that have a 4 pin USB 2.0 header. It is not designed for anything beyond that. Brandon, StarTech.com Support

**Q: Will this work on a car stereo?**
A: Unlikely.   Its designed to work in a computer with 4-pin connectors.  Its unlikely a car stereo would have the 4-pin connector wired for USB.  But, in the end, its just an adapter, its job is to turn a 4-pin USB  to a conventional USB.

**Q: Can you have 2 of these adapters in one usb 2.0 port**
A: I'm sure the question is super clear, but if you have two spots on your motherboard for hooking up usb ports then you can use two of these. I know I did. It wont really spit into to though; it isn't a hub if that is what you are asking.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect if you need it
*by S***H on October 28, 2012*

This little gizmo lets you use an external USB device inside your case. If that's what you want to do, it works like a charm! Why would you want to do that? In my setup, I built a FreeNAS box booting off a USB stick (with the real drives dedicated to network-shared storage). I could use one of the USB ports in the back just fine, but mounting it internally is a little slicker-looking, and means there's no risk of breaking my server because someone unplugged the stick to transfer some photos or something, or because it banged into something and got dislodged. Definitely a nice-to-have rather than a must-have, but it works well and I like it. (It helps that in my case, it reaches just far enough to let me slide the USB key into the racks on the case bottom which held the HDD slides; much better than hanging in air.) I did have to reseat it once after some major work inside the case; it wasn't visibly off the pins, but the system couldn't read the drive; a simple re-seat did it, but in a high vibration environment this would be a worry. (Or if you go to LAN parties a lot or something; you might want to secure it mechanically, or with a locking solution on the contact pins.)
