USB-C Y-Cable for Extra Power

This Vszerda UC-073-HX cable splits one USB-C device connection across two standard USB-A ports to draw supplementary power. It measures 60cm and uses a USB 3.1 Type-C connector with 24 pins. The white cable is intended for devices such as portable 2.5-inch hard drives that exceed the current limit of a single port.

Who This Suits and Who It Does Not

It suits users whose laptop or desktop USB-A ports cannot supply enough current for a bus-powered USB-C peripheral. It is not for buyers who need USB 3.1 Gen 1 or Gen 2 data rates, nor for anyone requiring a single-cable connection without an extra power-only plug.

Deciding Specification

The cable operates at 480 megabits per second, which is the USB 2.0 signalling rate, so data transfer will not reach the higher speeds associated with the USB 3.1 label on the connector.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 60 cm Y-cable or a longer version for my 2.5-inch drive?

The cable is 60 cm long; if your drive sits close to the computer this length works, otherwise you will need a different cable.

The box says USB 3.1 but the speed is 480 megabits per second — what does that mean for my hard drive?

The connector is USB 3.1 Type-C, yet data runs at USB 2.0 480 megabits per second, so large files transfer at 2.0 speeds.

Will the USB 3.1 Type-C plug work at full 3.1 speed on my laptop port?

The cable uses a USB 3.1 Type-C connector but is limited to USB 2.0 480 megabits per second, so it caps at 2.0 performance.
