  • Product typeHI - Electrical & Industrial Wire
  • Compatible with 5050 and 3528 RGB LED strips
  • 3-pin 5V female-to-female connector ensures correct polarity
  • 1 metre cable length gives flexible placement options
  • Extends strips from controller to desired install location
  • Links multiple strips together for larger lighting runs

Purpose and compatibility

This RGB splitter cable connects 5V addressable LED strips using a 3-pin female-to-female layout. It suits builders extending 5050 or 3528 strips between a controller and the first strip or between multiple strips in a single run.

Build and daily use

The 1-metre cord uses a simple 1-female-to-1-female connector that plugs directly into standard 3-pin 5V headers on strips or controllers. No soldering or tools are required, so re-routing or adding sections can be done quickly during a build or upgrade.

Voltage and connector limits

The cable is rated for 5V only; connecting it to a 4-pin 12V RGB header will damage the attached LED strips. It carries a 3-pin signal, so it cannot be used with 4-pin 12V RGB devices or any non-5V addressable lighting system.

Questions about this item

What does the 3-pin 5V interface limit in practice?

The 3-pin 5V connector restricts use to 5050 and 3528 RGB LED strips or fans; connecting to a 4-pin 12V header will burn the strip.

What physical clearance does the 1M cable with female-to-female ends require?

The 1 metre / 3.3 ft cord needs enough slack to span between two female ports on your controller and LED strip without tension on the connectors.

How is the splitter installed, and which step is often missed?

Plug one female end into the IR/RF controller output and the other into the 5050/3528 strip input; the step often missed is verifying the strip is 5V 3-pin before powering on.
