Optiplex 5060 Micro, USB Type-C motherboard headers
Hello,
On the 5060 Micro, there are pins on the motherboard listed for USB type C, as shown here under #5:
https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/lt/en/ltbsdt1/optiplex-5060-desktop/optiplex_5060_micro_service_manual/micro-motherboard-layout?guid=guid-17d56544-c19e-44b6-80ed-c6f246007cd2&lang=en-us
Does anyone know if these pins have a corresponding cable/attachment i can buy somewhere to allow me to have an internal usb port? I would like to install an internal USB drive to hold a boot drive for an ESXi install.
Looking for something that works similar to this:

Were you able to find any info on this? Does the USB-C header support DisplayPort video out?

Dell does not publish this information.
Display port over USB-C is not available nor is Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C power.

Necroing this thread for anyone who runs across it like I did. The Type-C adapter add-in module that attaches to the Type-C and Video headers on e.g. a 7080 Micro is available on Aliexpress. Unsure if I'm allowed to link directly, but it's easily found by searching for "Aliexpress J03TG CN-0J03TG 0J03TG" or similar. Hope this is helpful to someone!
