The only external type connector in the USB port adapter as part of the
cable for the card reader. The rest are internal, one specific to the back
of the card reader, and two specific to the mobo USB ports.
Rather not digress to other hardware until you understand what you have and
how it can be connected, thus implying the requirements.
Unless specific are provided for cable type connection by the links, and
what you have available to connect to, there's no sure answer for those
other devices.
