PWM Fan Splitter for Motherboard Control
This Phobya Y-cable lets two 4-pin PWM fans run from a single motherboard header while drawing power through a 4-pin Molex connector. It suits builders who want PWM speed control without buying a dedicated fan controller.
Sustained Operation with Sleeved Protection
The 50 cm length is fully covered in black Flexsleeves that guard against abrasion during continuous use. Heat-shrink tubing at each connector end keeps the termination tidy and reduces strain on the wires over long periods.
Simple Installation with One Limitation
Plug the 4-pin PWM lead into the motherboard header, connect two PWM fans to the splitter ends, and attach the Molex plug to the power supply. The cable cannot supply PWM control to fans that lack a 4-pin PWM input.

Questions about this item
Does the 50 cm Phobya 1012263 Y-cable add any heat or noise when running fans continuously?
The cable itself is passive wiring with sleeved conductors and heat-shrink ends, so it does not generate heat or audible noise; only the connected fans produce sound and warmth.
What motherboard header and power supply connector are required to use the Phobya 1012263 splitter?
You need one free 4-pin PWM fan header on the motherboard and one spare 4-pin Molex connector from the power supply to feed the two attached fans.
Will the Phobya 1012263 splitter work with older 3-pin fans I already own?
The splitter provides two 4-pin PWM outputs; 3-pin fans will fit mechanically but will run at fixed voltage without PWM speed control from the motherboard header.
