## Long description

The Drive Bay Panel Exsys EX-1174 Black is an internal USB 2.0 metal hub designed to expand desktop connectivity by adding four USB 2.0 A-ports to your computer system. This device connects to a single USB 2.0 pin header on the motherboard or an expansion card, allowing up to four external USB 2.0 peripheral devices to be linked directly to the front of the computer. Built with a durable metal case, the panel is engineered to fit into both 3.5-inch and 5.25-inch front drive bays, providing a reliable and integrated hardware expansion solution.
