USB 3.0 Y Splitter for Power & Data

This cable splits one USB 3.0 Type A male port into two female ports. One female port is USB 3.0 for charging only. The other female port is USB 2.0 for both charging and data transfer. It is designed for devices that draw more power than a single port can supply.

Check Port Types & Power Needs

Verify that your host device has a USB 3.0 Type A port for the male connector. Confirm the peripheral uses a standard USB Type A plug. Note that the USB 3.0 female port cannot charge iOS devices. The USB 2.0 female port supports data at 480 Mbps.

Replaces Single-Port Power Adapters

Use this instead of a basic USB cable when a hard drive or other peripheral fails to spin up from one port. The 30 cm length suits desktop setups where two host ports are close together. It is not for users who need two simultaneous data connections or USB 3.0 data speeds on both branches.

Questions about this item

Does the package include any adapters or power bricks, or is it just the Y cable itself?

Only the 30 cm Y splitter cable is supplied; no extra adapters or power bricks are included.

When should I use the USB 3.0 female port versus the USB 2.0 female port on this splitter?

Use the USB 3.0 female solely for extra power charging; the USB 2.0 female handles both data transfer at 480 Mbps and power charging for all devices.

What real-world data speed will I see through the USB 2.0 female port when connected to an external drive?

The USB 2.0 female port is limited to the 480 Mbps USB 2.0 standard, so sustained transfer rates will top out around that figure.
