Port expansion for laptops and desktops

The IOGEAR 5112GITB8944 turns a single USB 2.0 Type-A port into two female ports so you can attach a keyboard, mouse, flash drive or external hard drive at the same time. It suits users who need extra ports without a bulky hub.

USB 2.0 speed and power limits

The cable supports up to 480 Mbps data transfer and 2 A charging current, which is the ceiling for the USB 2.0 standard. Bus-powered devices that draw more current than the host port supplies may not work reliably through the splitter.

Simple plug-in with one common issue

No driver installation is required; just connect the male plug to the host and attach your peripherals. The main problem occurs when the combined device draw exceeds the host port’s current limit, causing disconnects or failed enumeration.
