## Long description

ACT CABLE-268 is a 0.5 m power adapter cable that converts a single 1×5.25" (Molex) male power connector into two SATA (female) power plugs. The cable is intended to supply power to two SATA storage or optical devices from one legacy 5.25" Molex power output, making it suitable for desktop PC builds, system upgrades, and repairs where direct SATA power headers are limited or unavailable.
Advantages
The compact 0.5 m length minimizes cable clutter inside the chassis while providing sufficient reach for typical drive bay arrangements. The adapter delivers two independent SATA power outputs from one Molex input, enabling simultaneous connection of two HDDs, SSDs, or optical drives. The molded connectors and insulated wiring are designed for stable electrical contact and straightforward installation in standard desktop environments.
Suitable for
 Adding power to one or two SATA hard disk drives (HDDs)
 Powering SATA solid state drives (SSDs) during upgrades
 Connecting SATA optical drives when SATA power ports are limited
 Temporary or permanent power routing in desktop PC builds and repairs
Key specifications
 Cable type: 1×5.25" Molex (male) to 2×SATA power (female)
 Length: 0.5 m
 Connector gender: male input to female outputs
 Intended use: power adapter for SATA devices from Molex power source
 Compatible devices: SATA HDD, SATA SSD, SATA optical drives
How to use
Power off the computer and disconnect it from the mains before installing the cable. Insert the 1×5.25" Molex male connector into the corresponding power socket from the power supply, ensuring proper orientation. Route the cable to the drive bay and plug the SATA power connectors into the devices' power ports. After connections are secure, restore mains power and power on the system to verify device recognition and proper operation.
Usage recommendations
Use this adapter only with compatible power supplies and SATA devices; avoid forcing connectors and ensure that the combined current draw of the connected devices does not exceed the power rail capacity of the supplying Molex output. Keep the cable away from moving parts and sharp edges inside the case.
