A-RGB 5V 3-pin Extension Cable 300 mm, XSPC

XSPC A-RGB 5V 3-pin extension cable, 300 mm, is designed to extend addressable RGB connections between PC components while preserving the standard 5V A-RGB 3-pin pinout. The slim, flexible cable provides additional reach for ARGB LEDs, fans, light strips and other addressable RGB devices, enabling neat cable routing in compact or full-size builds without altering signal order or voltage requirements.

Advantages

The extension retains the correct 5V A-RGB pinout and signal order, ensuring compatibility with motherboards and controllers that accept 3-pin addressable RGB connectors. At 300 mm length it offers a balance between reach and tidy cable management, and its flexible jacket simplifies routing behind trays and through tight spaces. The cable is a passive, plug-and-play accessory that does not require additional power or configuration.

Suitable for

• Extending addressable RGB headers to reach distant fans or LED strips
• Connecting ARGB devices in compact PC cases where direct connection is not possible
• Neat routing of ARGB cables behind motherboard trays or along chassis edges
• Linking ARGB controllers or splitters to motherboard 5V 3-pin headers

Key specifications

• Connector type: 3-pin 5V A-RGB male-to-female extension
• Length: 300 mm
• Signal: Addressable RGB (data line, power, ground) preserved
• Cable construction: flexible insulated wires with molded connectors
• Compatibility: devices and headers using 5V 3-pin A-RGB standard

How to use

Plug the male end of the extension into the 3-pin 5V A-RGB header on the motherboard, controller or splitter, then connect the female end to the ARGB device such as a fan, LED strip or another cable. Ensure the connector orientation matches the header markings so the 5V pin aligns correctly. Route the cable to minimize stress on connectors and avoid sharp bends that could damage the wires. No drivers or configuration changes are required for the extension itself.

Usage recommendations

For reliable operation, verify that the total current draw of connected ARGB devices does not exceed the power rating of the motherboard header or controller. Use the 300 mm extension to improve cable management and avoid placing it near heat sources or moving parts. If multiple devices are connected, consider using a powered ARGB hub or splitter sized for the combined current.
