What is this cable?

Just got a new case and for one of the cables I cant find any connectors on my motherboard for. What is it, and where does it go on my mobo? See here:

It's a usb 3.1 header. The case may have a usb 3.0 header for compatibility but I don't know what your case is.

My case is a Be Quiet! Dark Base 700. Where would I put it then? I have a z270-a pro motherboard and can't see anywhere it would plug into.

It is a USB 3.1 Type C header. Your motherboard may not have it.

Hi

The picture is not very clear
What is at the other end of the cable on the outside of the case?
What case?
What does the user guide or spec for the case say

What motherboard?

Older motherboards may not have usb 3.0 pins

Your case has separate 3.0 ports to use. You can't use 3.1 gen 2 because your mobo doesn't have it.
