One port becomes two
This USB 2.0 Y-cable splits a single Type-A port into two female ports for simultaneous device connection. It suits users who need to attach a keyboard and mouse, or a controller and headset, to one laptop or console port. The compact splitter works with Mac, Windows PC, PS4, PS5 and smart TVs. No extra drivers are required for basic operation.
Low draw passive design
The adapter draws power only from the host port and has no active electronics or fan. It supports low-power charging and data sync for small peripherals such as mice, keyboards or gamepads. Because it adds no extra circuitry, it adds negligible heat and makes no audible noise. Total current available to both devices is limited by the host port rating.
USB 2.0 bandwidth limit
The cable operates at USB 2.0 speeds, so high-throughput devices such as external SSDs or 4 K capture cards will not reach their full performance. Buyers who need faster transfer rates should choose a hub or cable rated for a higher USB standard. This splitter is intended for input devices, audio gear and similar low-bandwidth accessories.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the Y-cable to add two USB-A devices to one port?
Plug the single USB 2.0 male connector into the host port, then attach each peripheral to the two female sockets; the Y-shape keeps both cables clear of adjacent ports.
Will the splitter itself need replacement or periodic cleaning?
The moulded connectors and cable jacket are solid-state with no moving parts, so only inspect for bent pins or frayed insulation if devices stop being recognised.
What limits simultaneous use of two bus-powered drives on this splitter?
Both downstream ports share the single upstream USB 2.0 connection, so total bandwidth and available bus current are divided between the two attached devices.
