Power expansion for case fans
This SATA-powered splitter converts one 15-pin connector into two ports for 3-pin or 4-pin 12V cooling fans. It suits DIY builders and upgraders who need extra fan headers without adding a fan controller. The 10.6 inch length supports tidy routing inside standard chassis layouts.
Passive thermals and power draw
The adapter draws 12V power directly from the PSU SATA rail and passes it to both connected fans. High-purity conductors reduce resistive loss and keep connector temperatures low during continuous operation. No active circuitry means zero added noise or electronic interference in the cooling loop.
Replaces missing motherboard headers
Use this when the board lacks enough 3-pin or 4-pin fan connectors for your cooling plan. The jump is worth it if total fan current stays within the SATA port rating and you prefer a simple plug-in solution over a powered hub. Not suited for high-current server fans or builds needing per-fan PWM control from the motherboard.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the 15-pin SATA plug and the two fan headers correctly?
Plug the 15-pin SATA connector into any free SATA power lead from the power supply, then attach each 3-pin or 4-pin fan to the two output headers; the keyed shrouds prevent reversed insertion.
Will the molded connectors or wiring degrade after continuous 12V fan operation?
High-purity conductors and reinforced molded ends are designed for long continuous use, so no scheduled replacement is needed unless physical damage occurs.
What total fan power draw can the single SATA connection safely handle?
The supplier reminds you to keep the combined draw of both fans within the SATA port's 12V current rating to avoid overloading.
