USB 2.0 Y Splitter for PC Peripherals

This red Y cable turns a single USB-A port into two female ports so you can connect a mouse, keyboard, flash drive or other low-power accessory to a desktop or laptop. The 30 cm length keeps the setup tidy on a desk. It draws power from the host port and requires no drivers or external adapter.

Bandwidth and power limits of the USB 2.0 interface

The splitter shares one 480 Mbps channel between both ports, so simultaneous transfers run at half that rate or less. Total current draw is capped at 1 Amp, which covers mice, keyboards and flash drives but not portable hard drives or fast chargers. The cable cannot be used with car stereos, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay or Ford Sync because those systems do not recognise a hub.

Single 1 Amp power budget decides suitability

If the two devices you plan to attach together need more than 1 Amp, the splitter will not deliver reliable power and data. It is also unsuitable for dual headphones or any high-power accessory. For those needs a powered hub with its own supply is required.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 30 cm red splitter or is another length offered?

Only the 30 cm red version is listed; no other lengths or colours appear in the specifications.

What does the 480 Mbps rating deliver when the splitter is plugged into a computer?

It provides USB 2.0 data speeds up to 480 Mbps shared between the two ports, enough for mice, keyboards, flash drives and similar peripherals.

Which USB standard does the Y-cable use and what limits does that impose?

The cable follows USB 2.0, capping combined throughput at 480 Mbps and total power draw at 1 A, so high-power devices are not recommended.
