- Dual USB-A design powers high-capacity drives from low-output ports
- USB 3.1 Gen1 transfers large files at up to 5Gbps

Y-Splitter Cable for External Drives
This Manw USB3.1 Type-C to Dual USB-A male Y cable connects a single USB-C port to one data path and a second auxiliary power input. It targets laptop and power-bank users whose ports cannot supply enough current for high-capacity portable hard drives, preventing identification failures and sudden disconnects during file transfers.
USB3.1 Gen1 5Gbps Throughput with 2.0 Fallback
The data leg runs at up to 5Gbps for large backups to external HDDs or SSDs and drops to USB2.0 speeds when connected to older hosts. The secondary Type-A plug draws only supplementary power, so total bandwidth stays on the primary link; the cable cannot combine both ports for faster throughput or charge a host device.
Gold-Plated Connectors and Shielded Jacket
Gold-plated, corrosion-resistant contacts and multi-layer shielding maintain stable signal integrity and continuous power delivery. The compact Y-shaped layout reduces desktop clutter and suits travel kits, while the durable outer jacket tolerates repeated bending for long-term daily use with hard drives, Type-C smartphones, card readers and other high-draw USB peripherals.

Questions about this item
Will the dual USB-A male connectors on this Y splitter work with my older USB 2.0 external hard drive and laptop ports?
Yes, the cable is backward compatible with USB 2.0 devices, so your older drive and laptop ports will function normally at USB 2.0 speeds.
How can I confirm the auxiliary power connector is actually supplying extra current to my portable hard drive after I plug it in?
The drive should spin up reliably without clicking or disconnection errors, indicating the secondary USB-A port is delivering the supplementary power needed for stable operation.
Does the package include a separate USB-C power adapter or do I need to buy one to use the extra power port?
No separate power adapter is included; the auxiliary USB-A plug draws its extra power from a second USB-A port on your laptop, power bank or hub, so no additional purchase is required.
