Black Y-cable with two USB-A plugs and one Micro-USB 3.0 plug, 60cm length

Fervit

Fervit Dual USB-A 3.0 to Micro-USB 3.0 Y-Cable 60cm

SKU CH-RJVW-3GATF

A Y-cable combining USB 3.0 data and USB 2.0 extra power to run 2.5-inch drives at up to 5 Gbps and 10 W over 60 cm

  • Dual USB-A ports combine power for devices needing more current
  • 60 cm length suits desktop or laptop setups
  • 5 Gbps data rate on the USB 3.0 connector
  • Up to 10 W peak power when both ports are used
  • Second USB-A port supplies extra power only, no data

Dual USB-A 3.0 Y-Cable for Extra Power

This cable connects a Micro-USB 3.0 device to two USB-A ports on a host. One connector carries USB 3.0 data and power while the second supplies USB 2.0 power only. It is designed for portable drives, cameras or media players that draw more current than a single port can provide. The 60 cm length suits desktop or laptop use.

Replaces a Standard Single-Ended Cable

A regular USB cable relies on one port for both data and power, which can starve high-draw 2.5 inch drives. This Y-cable adds a second power-only connector so the device receives up to 10 W from two ports combined. The upgrade is worth it when a drive fails to spin up or disconnects under load on a single port.

Check Port Availability and Device Connector

Verify the host has two free USB-A sockets close enough for the 60 cm split. Confirm the peripheral uses a Micro-USB 3.0 plug, not the smaller Micro-USB 2.0 or USB-C variants. The secondary connector carries no data, so it cannot replace a hub or add a second device.

Questions about this item

How much space does the 60cm cable need between the device and the two USB ports?

The 60cm length gives roughly 60 centimetres of reach between the Micro-USB 3.0 device and the two Type-A plugs, so the ports must be within that distance of the device.

Which Type-A plug carries data and which is power-only during installation?

The USB 3.0 Type-A connector handles both 5Gbps data and power; the second USB 2.0 Type-A connector supplies extra power only and carries no data.

When will the Y-cable itself need replacement?

Replace the cable if the connectors become loose, the insulation frays, or the combined 5V 2A power delivery drops below what the 2.5-inch drive requires.
