Ruth's sister 2-in-1 OTG Micro USB Y Splitter Adapter Cable international power cord

SKU CH-0XW1-WFDF0

  • Micro USB male plugs into host device directly
  • Micro USB female port accepts external power input
  • USB female port connects flash drives or peripherals

What this cable does

This 2-in-1 OTG Micro USB Y-splitter lets a phone or tablet act as a USB host while simultaneously accepting external power through its micro-USB female port. It is intended for users who need to connect flash drives, keyboards or other USB peripherals to a mobile device that cannot supply enough current on its own.

Check your device port and OTG support

Verify that your mobile device has a Micro USB port and supports USB On-The-Go functionality before ordering. The adapter’s micro-USB male plug inserts into the host device, while the standard USB female socket accepts the peripheral and the second micro-USB female socket receives a charger or power bank.

How the second micro-USB port changes use

The extra micro-USB female connector is dedicated to power input only; it does not pass data to the host. Supplying external power through this port allows bus-powered peripherals such as portable hard drives to operate reliably without draining the phone’s battery.

Questions about this item

Does the cable include a separate power adapter or must I supply my own USB charger?

The splitter draws power from an external USB charger that you provide; the micro-USB female port on the Y-cable is the power input, and no wall adapter is included.

Which version of this splitter should I choose for a phone that only has a micro-USB port?

This single model has a micro-USB male plug for the host and a micro-USB female port for power, so it fits phones with a micro-USB OTG port.

What does the "2-in-1 OTG" label mean when I connect a flash drive and a charger?

It lets the phone act as host for the flash drive while the charger powers the drive through the micro-USB female port, so the phone does not supply the drive's power.
