1:5 DC Power Splitter

This JacobsParts DCSPLIT-C cable splits a single 5.5 × 2.1 mm barrel jack into five male plugs. Each one-foot segment gives a tidy daisy-chain run for LED strips, CCTV cameras or similar 5-48 V gear. Pure-copper 20 AWG conductors carry up to 8 A total across all branches. The six-foot overall length reaches most desktop or rack locations without strain.

Build integration and cable management

The female inlet accepts any standard 5.5 × 2.1 mm supply, so the cord slots into existing power bricks without adapters. Five male tails let you power a string of devices from one outlet, reducing wall-wart clutter and freeing socket space. Flexible 20 AWG wire routes cleanly through cable trays or behind panels, and the daisy-chain layout keeps voltage drop predictable across the chain.

Ideal users and limitations

Installers running multiple LED strips or camera nodes from one supply will appreciate the plug-and-play simplicity. Builders who need isolated outputs, higher per-port current, or locking connectors should look elsewhere. The fixed one-foot spacing suits uniform runs but cannot be adjusted for irregular device spacing. Users requiring voltages outside the 5-48 V range or currents above 8 A shared must choose a different distribution method.

Questions about this item

Will the 8 A limit throttle my five devices if they all draw full power at once?

The cable is rated for 8 A total across all five outputs, so combined draw above that will trip the supply or overheat the wire.

Does the 20 AWG wire get noticeably warm when all five outputs run continuously?

At full 8 A the 20 AWG pure-copper conductors will warm up; keep the cable in open air and avoid bundling to limit temperature rise.

Must my power supply already have a 5.5 × 2.1 mm male tip to plug into the splitter’s female jack?

Yes, the splitter accepts one 5.5 × 2.1 mm male connector from your supply and provides five matching male plugs for your devices.
