FAQs

What is the length of the cable?

The cable is 50cm (0.5 meters) long.

What type of connector does it use?

It uses 4-pin Molex connectors (male to female).

What devices can I use this cable with?

This cable is designed for devices that use 4-pin Molex connectors, such as hard drives and optical drives.

Is this cable safe to use?

Yes, the cable is RoHS compliant, indicating it meets environmental and safety standards.

Can I use this cable to power a graphics card?

No, this cable is not designed for graphics cards as they typically use different power connectors.

How do I manage the cables to improve airflow?

Use cable ties or Velcro straps to bundle the cables neatly. Route the cables behind the motherboard tray or along the edges of the case to keep them out of the way of fans.

Troubleshooting

Device not receiving power.

Check the connections at both ends of the extension cable. Ensure the power supply is turned on and functioning. Test the device directly with a power cable from the power supply to rule out a device fault.

Loose connection.
