Single-port expansion for USB-C hosts
This KiwiBird splitter turns one USB-C port into two USB-C sockets for keyboards, mice, flash drives and similar peripherals. It handles USB 2.0 data at up to 480 Mbps and delivers up to 1.5 A for basic charging of phones or small accessories. The grey cable is built for everyday carry between home, office and travel.
Sustained use stays within USB 2.0 limits
Data throughput remains at USB 2.0 rates during long transfers rather than bursting higher, and the 1.5 A current ceiling is shared between the two ports. The adapter does not combine charging and data simultaneously in every configuration, so heavy loads on both sockets will throttle to the stated limits.
Low heat and silent operation
With no active cooling and a maximum draw of 7.5 W, the splitter runs cool and makes no audible noise in normal use. The compact moulded body keeps voltage drop minimal across the short cable length, so connected devices see stable power without extra bulk.

Questions about this item
Does the splitter get warm or draw much power when I leave a flash drive and keyboard plugged in all day?
It runs at USB 2.0 speeds of 480 Mbps with a maximum charging current of 1.5 A, so heat and power draw stay very low for typical peripherals.
What must my laptop or charger provide for this splitter to work?
You need a single USB-C port that can supply up to 1.5 A at 5 V; the splitter itself adds no extra power requirement.
Will my older USB 2.0 flash drives and USB-A keyboards work through this USB-C splitter?
The female ports are USB-C only, so legacy USB-A devices need a separate USB-A-to-C adapter; USB 2.0 flash drives with a USB-C connector will operate at the rated 480 Mbps.
