You have 3 options:

USB 3.0 header to USB 2.0 header adapter

Forgoing 1 or 2 USB 2.0 ports by unplugging that header in favor os Corsair Link.

If the cable is USB 2.0 Mini or Micro B, then you can use a bog standard USB cable with the same end and just plug it into a USB port on the back of the system.

Not that I'm aware of, anything that could do the job without introducing data routing problems, data corruption, or data duplication, would take up additional space, and likely be more expensive than necessary because of how niche such a product would be.

I'm assuming that you're trying to connect the Commander and the cooler, is that correct? If so, which cooler do you have?

I stand corrected. NZXT makes a hub, $25 and it turns one internal header into 3 internal headers and 2 external USB ports.

 

Here's the link:
