Starting at $10 per cable. Build custom sleeved fan extension cables in the Cable Designer. Choose the fan connector type, cable length, Wire Wraps, sleeving design, and crafting period, then add the completed order directly to your cart.
What Is a Fan Extension Cable?
A fan extension cable extends the connection between a fan and its existing motherboard header or fan hub. It is used when the original fan cable is too short for clean routing or when you want a sleeved cable that matches the rest of your build.
An extension cable does not add fan connections or split one header between multiple fans. Build one extension for each fan connection that needs one.
How to Order
- Open the Cable Designer and select the extension category.
- Choose the fan extension cable type that matches your fan, motherboard header, or fan hub.
- Select the cable length, Wire Wrap color, sleeving design, and crafting period.
- Add each different fan extension design to your Order Contents.
- Review the completed order, then select Add Order to Cart in the Cable Designer.
Choosing Cable Length
Measure the complete route from the fan to its motherboard header or fan hub, including any cable-routing openings and bends. Choose a length that reaches comfortably without leaving unnecessary excess cable.
If you need several fan extensions, measure each route separately. Fans in different locations often need different cable lengths.
Design and Construction
- Individually sleeved fan-extension wires
- High-density paracord sleeving
- Wire Wraps installed at approximately one wrap per 10 cm of cable length
- Built by hand for the selected connector type and length
Use the Cable Designer to create a single-color cable, a custom sleeving pattern, or a design that matches the rest of your cable order. Available colors can also be viewed on the Sleeving Colors page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order a single-color fan extension?
Yes. Choose the same sleeving color for each wire in the Cable Designer.

Yes. Add each fan extension design to your Order Contents, then save the completed order and add it to your cart.
Will this work with my fan or fan hub?
Choose the connector type that matches your fan and its connection point. If you are unsure which type you need, check the connector on the fan and motherboard header or hub before ordering.
