Ruth's sister USB 5V to 12V 5.5x2.1mm Step-Up Cable with LED Display

SKU CH-9S4V-5S63F

Boosts USB 5 V to 12 V at up to .5 A with an LED voltage display and a 100 cm cable

  • Boosts 5 V USB power to 12 V for routers
  • LED display shows real-time output voltage
  • 100 cm cable gives flexible placement options
  • 5 × 2.1 mm plug fits common 12 V devices
  • Delivers up to 6 W from a 2 A USB port

Power-bank-to-router cable

This USB 5 V to 12 V step-up cable lets you run a 12 V router or similar device from a standard power bank. The built-in LED display shows the output voltage so you can confirm the line is live. It accepts a 5 V 2 A USB source and delivers up to 6 W at 12 V 0.5 A through a 5.5 × 2.1 mm centre-positive plug. The 100 cm black lead gives flexible placement behind networking gear.

Replaces dedicated 12 V adapters

Instead of a wall-wart supply, you can power compatible routers, switches, LED strips or car air purifiers from any 5 V 2 A USB port. The jump is worth it when mains power is unavailable or you want a single portable source for multiple low-power 12 V devices. Do not use it for equipment that draws more than 6 W or requires a higher current than 0.5 A at 12 V. The cable is not suitable for laptops, monitors or PoE injectors.

Sustained-load behaviour

Under continuous load the converter maintains 12 V output as long as the USB source can supply 2 A steadily. The LED display lets you monitor voltage drop in real time without a separate meter. Cable resistance over the 100 cm length is low enough for the rated 0.5 A without noticeable heating. Intermittent or weak USB ports may cause the output to sag or shut down.

Questions about this item

What size DC barrel plug does the cable use for 12 V output?

The output end terminates in a 5.5 × 2.1 mm plug with centre-positive polarity, matching many routers and LED strips.

How do I connect the cable to a power bank and what mistake should I avoid?

Plug the standard USB 2.0 male end into any 5 V USB port capable of 2 A, then attach the 5.5 × 2.1 mm plug to the device; do not exceed the 6 W / 0.5 A output limit.

When will the built-in LED voltage display need attention?

The display draws negligible power and has no replaceable parts; it simply shows the 12 V output while the cable is operating.
