Vszerda USB 3.1 Type-C to Dual USB-A Y-Cable 60cm
A USB 3.1 Type-C to dual USB-A Y-cable, 60 cm long, draws power from two ports to run 2.5-inch drives that need more current than a single port supplies
- Dual USB-A ports supply extra power for demanding USB-C devices
- 60 cm length keeps desk setups tidy and flexible
- USB 3.1 interface enables fast data transfer on the primary connector
- Second USB-A plug delivers power only to boost total current
- Solves under-power issues with 2.5 inch drives and other peripherals
What this cable does
This USB 3.1 Type-C to dual USB-A Y-cable connects a single USB-C device to two USB-A ports on a host. One connector carries both power and data, while the second connector supplies extra power only. The 60 cm length suits desktop or laptop setups where a standard cable cannot deliver enough current.
How the dual connectors help
The Y-design draws power from two USB ports simultaneously, solving the problem of devices that need more current than one port provides. The data line runs through the primary connector, so file transfers continue while the secondary connector adds supplementary power. This arrangement supports 2.5 inch portable hard drives and phones that require higher start-up current.
Who should use it and who should not
Users with portable 2.5 inch drives, phones or other USB-C peripherals that fail to spin up or charge from a single USB-A port will benefit. Buyers who need a straight-through data cable without extra power, or who require a longer reach than 60 cm, should look at a different cable.

Questions about this item
Will the 60 cm Y-cable need replacement if the USB-A plugs wear out?
The cable uses two standard USB-A male connectors rated for typical USB insertion cycles; replace the cable if a plug becomes loose or pins bend.
What limits throughput during long transfers on this 2.0 Y-cable?
The link operates at USB 2.0 speeds, so the 60 cm cable’s 2.0 signalling is the throughput ceiling during sustained copies.
Does the 60 cm Y-cable run warm or draw extra power when powering a 2.5 inch drive all day?
It draws power from two USB-A ports simultaneously, keeping per-port current low; the thin 60 cm cable stays near ambient temperature during continuous use.
