USB 3.0 Type E, where it connects

So, I was looking for front panels for my PC and found this curious panel.

It has this connector they call USB 3.0 Type E and the connector to the motherboard looks different than usual.

Its a usb-e motherboard port, I doubt you will see it anywhere else. USB-c is the new standard for usb connections and e is a variation of this.

Its just a way to port usb-c female to the back of the case from the motherboard. Its is just a usb-e male to usb-c female adapter cable. Your motherboard must have a usb-e connection to use this cable
