Details
This extension cable adds 50 cm (19.7") to a 5-pin RGBW lighting connection. It has a 5-pin female connector on both ends, so it fits between the 5-pin RGBW header of a motherboard or controller and an LED strip, fan or other lighting part, or joins two RGBW cables into one longer run. The black cable keeps the run neat inside the case.

More reach for RGBW lighting
Plug one end onto the header of the motherboard or controller and connect the lighting part to the other end. All 5 lines are carried straight through, so colors and effects work exactly as with a direct connection. Use it when the cable of a strip or fan does not reach the header, or to route the lighting cable along a cleaner path.
Female on both ends
Many lighting parts and cables also end in a female plug. The ModMyMods Male to Male RGBW Connector (MOD-0260) pushes into a female end and turns it into a male plug, so two female ends can be joined without cutting or soldering.
Compatibility
The cable fits the 5-pin RGBW connection (red, green, blue and a separate white channel) used by RGBW controllers, RGBW LED strips and motherboards with a 5-pin RGBW header.
Part of a matched set
ModMyMods makes 5-pin RGBW extension cables in 50 cm and 1 m, 2-way, 3-way and 4-way splitter cables and a male to male connector, all in black with the same connectors, so they can be combined in one build.
