Ruth's sister 8-pin to dual 6+2-pin PCIe power splitter cable 22 cm
Splits one 8-pin PCIe connector into two 6+2-pin plugs using 18 AWG tinned-copper wire, 22 cm long
- Splits one 8-pin into two 6+2-pin connectors
- 22 cm length keeps cable runs tidy
- 18 AWG tinned copper handles high current loads
- 5559 and 5557 interfaces ensure secure seating
- PVC insulation rated to 80 °C for safe operation
Product identity
This is a new 22 cm internal power splitter cable from Ruth's sister. It converts a single 8-pin PCIe source into two 6+2-pin connectors for graphics cards or mining rigs. Builders with limited PSU outputs use it to add a second GPU power line without replacing the power supply.
Critical specification
The cable uses 18 AWG tinned copper conductors rated for 80 °C with PVC insulation. Each 6+2-pin end mates with 5557 slide-rail headers while the source end fits a 5559 8-pin socket. This wire gauge and connector pairing determines whether the assembly can deliver the current your card demands.
Capacity and headroom
The 22 cm length and 32 g weight suit tight routing inside compact cases. Two 6+2-pin branches cover most dual-connector GPUs, but cards requiring three or more PCIe plugs will still need additional cables or a higher-output PSU.

Questions about this item
How much power can each 6+2-pin connector deliver when the cable is running from a single 8-pin supply output?
The cable uses 18 AWG tinned-copper conductors rated for 80 °C, which are the same gauge used on standard PCIe power leads, so each 6+2-pin end carries whatever the PSU’s 8-pin rail is rated for.
What connectors are on each end of the splitter?
One end has a 5559 8-pin plug that goes into the power supply, and the other end splits into two 5557 6+2-pin slide-rail plugs that can be used as either 6-pin or 8-pin.
Will the 22 cm length reach from my PSU to a graphics card in a mid-tower case?
At 22 cm the cable is designed for tight routing; measure the distance from your PSU’s 8-pin socket to the GPU’s power inputs to confirm it spans the gap without strain.
