NZXT, today announces their newest iteration of their internal USB hub.

where they get no signal? genius these adaptors are sandwhiched between the mobo tray and the back panel 99% of the time, the internal port made no sense... and the height of them made actually plugging something in there incredibly unlikely too.

There are some products NZXT ones itself which come with mini USB port so you could connect it directly using Usb cable or have a small Linux installation on pendrive and not have it hanging off either front or rear IO panel.

That depends on the case. A side window doesn't do much to block radio frequencies.
It's also useful for adding a water pump or flow meter etc, if you're liquid cooling inclined
