12-inch black Y-cable with 3-pin pass-through connectors

Darkside Computer Modding

Darkside Computer Modding CONNECT Pass-Through Y-Cable Type 4 DS-0368 12

SKU CH-MF9E-0A2GS

A 12-inch Y-cable with a 3-pin pass-through that connects two CONNECT LEDs to a motherboard or fan controller

  • Cable length1 ft (0.3 m)
  • Connect two CONNECT LEDs to one 3-pin header with Type 4 pass-through
  • 12-inch length gives 30 cm reach for tidy internal routing
  • Universal extension design lets you swap LED connectivity without full cable replacement
  • 3-pin fan connector keeps PWM or voltage control intact through the Y-split
  • Reduces cable clutter in custom builds by consolidating power runs

Purpose-built LED power splitter

This Darkside Computer Modding CONNECT Y-cable splits a single 3-pin fan header into two Type 4 connections for CONNECT-series LED modules. The 12-inch length suits compact routing inside custom-modded chassis. Builders add addressable lighting without sacrificing the original fan header because the pass-through design keeps it available.

Replaces daisy-chain adapters

The cable removes the need for multiple loose extensions when expanding a CONNECT LED chain beyond one strip. It is worth the swap when a build runs two LED units from one motherboard header and total draw stays within the board’s rated limit. Single-strip installations gain no benefit from the splitter.

Fits custom-loop and air-cooled builds

The 30 cm lead reaches most motherboard headers from rear-mounted fan controllers or reservoir-integrated lighting. Type 4 ends lock onto Darkside CONNECT LED products, freeing the builder from proprietary connectors on each strip. The pass-through header remains open for PWM fan control or additional Y-cables.

Questions about this item

How long is the 12-inch cable and will it reach my motherboard header?

The cable is 12 inches (30 cm) long, giving enough slack to route from a motherboard 3-pin header to two CONNECT LED modules in a typical mid-tower case.

Which way round do I plug the pass-through Y-cable into the 3-pin fan header?

Align the keyed notch on the 3-pin connector with the tab on the motherboard header; the Y-split then feeds two CONNECT LEDs while the pass-through keeps the header free for a fan.

When should I replace this Y-cable if I keep reconfiguring my LED setup?

Replace it if the 3-pin sockets become loose, pins bend, or insulation shows cracking after repeated connect-disconnect cycles.
