I bought it after reading "USB" in the description. However, not all USB cables are created equal. In my case, I needed a 9-pin USB 2.0 patch cable with pin #10 missing on the male side and pin #9 on the female side blocked. Therefore this cable does not work. Be sure to check if you need a 9-pin or 10-pin cable before purchasing to ensure you have purchased the correct cable for your motherboard.
