Key features

Standard 2-pin connector fits all standard desktop motherboard Power SW headers
Generous 51cm (20-inch) length suitable for full-tower and mid-tower chassis
Ideal for replacing broken power buttons or for open bench test rigs
Simple plug-and-play installation without soldering required

How to use

Turn off your computer and unplug the power supply before installation. Locate the front panel header on your motherboard and identify the two pins labeled 'POWER SW'. Connect the 2-pin female connector firmly onto these pins and mount or route the push button as needed in your casing.

Does polarity matter when connecting the power switch to the motherboard?

No, a momentary push button switch simply shorts the two circuit pins to initiate startup, so polarity does not matter for the Power SW connection.
