USB A Male to Dual USB A Female Splitter

This Y splitter cable turns a single USB A port into two USB A sockets for simultaneous power and data use. It suits laptop owners, smartphone users and desktop builders who need extra connections for a mouse, keyboard, printer or gaming console without occupying additional ports.

Check your host port and device power needs

Verify the source device provides a standard USB A receptacle and can supply up to 2 Amp for the combined load. The built-in intelligent chip manages current distribution, but the cable does not support car data transmission and some devices require manual OTG activation before recognising both peripherals.

Replaces single-port hubs or short adapter dongles

Unlike a basic 10-centimetre dongle, the 26-centimetre braided lead gives flexible placement while the aluminium alloy housing resists wear and dissipates heat. The jump is worthwhile when you regularly connect two low-power accessories such as a mouse and keyboard or a phone and printer and want 480 Mbps throughput without a powered hub.
