Y-shaped cable with two USB-A plugs and one Micro-USB connector, 60cm long

LORDWORLD

LORDWORLD Dual USB-A to Micro USB 5-Pin Y Cable 60cm

SKU CH-677K-59G71

Combines two USB-A ports to deliver up to 5V 2A for power-hungry Micro USB 5-pin devices while maintaining 480 Mbps data transfer

  • Dual USB-A ports combine power for demanding 2.5 drives
  • Extra power-only connector supplements standard port when 5V 2A is needed
  • Single Micro USB 5-pin device draws from two host ports simultaneously
  • USB 2.0 Hi-Speed delivers 480Mbps data on the primary link
  • Backwards compatible with USB 1.1 Low-Speed at 1.5Mbps

Dual USB-A Y cable for extra power

This 60 cm cable splits a single Micro USB 5-pin device across two USB-A ports. One connector carries USB 2.0 power and data while the second supplies additional power only. It is designed for portable drives or peripherals that exceed the current available from a single port.

Suits under-powered external drives

Users with 2.5-inch hard drives, SSDs, cameras or MP4 players that fail to spin up on one USB-A socket will benefit. It is not for devices needing USB 3.0 or higher data rates, nor for connectors other than Micro USB 5-pin. Buyers wanting a single-cable solution without a second port should look elsewhere.

10 W peak delivery from two ports

The Y cable combines both USB-A inputs to provide up to DC 5 V 2 A, reaching a peak of 10 W. Data runs at USB 2.0 Hi-Speed 480 Mbps and falls back to USB 1.1 Low-Speed 1.5 Mbps when required. This power rating is the key figure for matching the cable to your device.

Questions about this item

Will the 480 Mbps data rate hold steady when the cable draws 10 W from two USB ports?

The cable is rated for USB 2.0 Hi-Speed at 480 Mbps and can deliver up to 10 W peak power when both Type-A plugs are connected.

Does the extra-power Type-A plug add fan noise or heat during all-day transfers?

The cable has no active components; it simply routes 5 V from a second USB port, so it adds no fan noise or measurable heat.

Which devices need the Micro USB 5-pin connector and two free Type-A ports to work with this cable?

Portable 2.5-inch hard drives, SSDs, cameras or MP4 players that use a Micro USB 5-pin port and draw more current than a single USB 2.0 socket can supply.
