When the dual-plug USB-C connector One end is plugged into the output USB-C socket of the computer fan, and the other end of the dual-plug USB-C connector is plugged into the input USB-C socket of the adjacent computer fan in the forward or reverse direction. When using the device, the correct electrical connection signal can be obtained. The electrical connector used in series connection of computer fans as described in claim 6, wherein the first customized terminal controls signals for a plurality of colorful light-emitting diodes in the computer fan and controls these colorful light-emitting diodes according to the addressing control method. The diodes form a predetermined color display and light flashing. The electrical connector used in series connection of computer fans as described in claim 6, wherein the second custom terminal and the third custom terminal form a set of device codes, device firmware versions, and light-emitting diodes in the computer fan. The number of pole bodies, the temperature of the heat dissipation target, the fan speed, the fan installation direction and the control signal of the reserved value, and the fourth custom terminal is used to detect the temperature of the heat dissipation target and the actual fan speed to automatically compensate and adjust the fan speed, and through the pulse The wave width modulation method adjusts the fan motor to a predetermined speed. The electrical connector used in series connection of computer fans as described in claim 6, wherein the computer fans formed in series are connected to a lighting fan hub distributor through a pair of plug cables to control the lighting of each computer fan. Mode and fan speed distribution control. The electrical connector used in series connection of computer fans as described in claim 9, wherein when the computer fan is connected in series, a plurality of series-forming circuits electrically connected to the lighting fan hub distributor are controlled through a computer user interface software. Connect the fan speed and BGB of the computer fan The lighting mode of the light-emitting diodes, and the series-connected computer fans are programmed with serial numbers from small to large according to the distance from the light fan hub distributor. At the same time, each computer fan is equipped with a function to maintain the fan at a predetermined speed. chip, and the computer fan automatically returns the data stored in the identity chip to a predetermined register set inside the identity chip of the previous device at a predetermined time interval.
