SMUGDESK 12Inch 30cm SATA to Dual Molex Power Adapter Cable

SKU CH-EP3J-FYTRP

Converts one SATA power connector into two Molex ports to run two peripherals from a single supply lead

  • Powers two Molex devices from one SATA connector
  • 30 cm sleeved cable keeps chassis wiring tidy
  • Black sleeving protects wires and aids airflow
  • Direct plug-and-play with no software needed
  • 15-pin SATA input splits to dual 4-pin Molex outputs

SATA to Dual Molex Power Adapter

This 30cm cable converts a single 15pin SATA power connector into two 4pin Molex outputs. It lets you power two older peripherals from one SATA port on the power supply. The black sleeved jacket keeps internal wiring tidy and improves airflow. No software or drivers are required for this passive adapter.

Upgrading from a single Molex lead

Replace a missing or damaged native Molex cable when your power supply lacks enough 4pin connectors. The jump is worth it when adding mechanical hard drives, optical drives or extra fans that still use Molex power. It solves the shortage without replacing the entire power supply unit. Verify the SATA rail can handle the combined load first.

Limits of the SATA power standard

One 15pin SATA connector is rated for a fixed maximum current that both Molex devices must share. Exceeding that limit can cause instability or connector damage. The adapter does not increase the available power from the supply itself. Builders needing more total wattage must upgrade the power supply instead.

Questions about this item

What length and connector type does this adapter need to fit inside my case?

The cable is 30 cm long and connects a single 15 pin SATA power plug to two 4 pin Molex sockets for peripheral devices.

How do I install this adapter and what is the common mistake to avoid?

Plug the SATA end into your power supply and the Molex ends into your devices; the step often missed is checking that the combined draw of both peripherals does not exceed the SATA rail limit.

When will this adapter or its connectors need replacement?

Replace the cable if the sleeved jacket shows cuts, the 15 pin SATA plug or either 4 pin Molex socket becomes loose, or you notice melted plastic or intermittent power to connected drives.
