Purpose and Compatibility

The 48VDCSPLITTER Y Splitter Cable links two Tripp Lite external battery packs to a compatible UPS system to extend runtime. It is designed for installations that use the non-expandable BP48V24-2U or other select packs specifying compatibility with this cable.

Bundled Connectors and Cabling

The one-foot assembly uses heavy-duty 4 AWG two-conductor black cabling terminated with three blue 175A DC connectors. Two outputs serve the battery packs while the single input mates with a UPS that specifies the BP48V24-2U pack.

Voltage and Current Limits

The cable is rated for 48 V DC and 175 A continuous current through each connector. It cannot be used with systems operating at different voltages or with connectors rated below 175 A, and the 30.5 cm length restricts placement to adjacent equipment.

Questions about this item

How often should the 4 AWG cables and 175A DC connectors be inspected or replaced?

Inspect the heavy-duty 4 AWG cabling and blue 175A DC connectors periodically for wear, corrosion or loose crimps; replace the cable if insulation is damaged or connectors show pitting.

What is the first limit reached when running two BP48V24-2U packs continuously through this splitter?

The 175 A DC rating per connector is the primary limit; sustained current above 175 A on any output will overheat the connector before the 4 AWG conductors reach their thermal ceiling.

How hot do the 175A connectors get and how much power is lost when the splitter runs all day?

Expect warm but not hot connectors at rated load; the short one-foot 4 AWG run keeps resistive loss low, so heat stays manageable during continuous operation.
