The USB 19PIN connector is somewhat bulky and in some situations can cause conflict with other components, especially in a compact case. This 90-degree elbow adapter helps overcome this issue by rotating the connector 90 degrees, changing the orientation of the cable to a position with more space. It can also be used just for tidying up cabling making it easier to run the USB cable behind the motherboard.

The adapters are available in 2 different orientations depending on the connector orientation on the motherboard, so please make sure you purchase the correct version.
