Audio Y-cable CORDIAL EY 0.3 WYY — 3.5 mm male to 2×3.5 mm female, 0.3 m, black

The CORDIAL EY 0.3 WYY is a 0.3 m audio Y-adapter that splits a single 3.5 mm stereo output into two 3.5 mm stereo sockets. It is designed for connecting two headphones or two stereo receivers to one source and is suited for portable audio devices, computers and compact audio setups. The molded bend protection increases durability and mating cycles, while the flexible PVC jacket and single-strand conductor construction maintain pliability during regular use.

Advantages

The adapter provides a straightforward way to share a stereo signal between two devices without active electronics. Spiral shielding and a conductor area of 0.14 mm² reduce interference, and the robust yet flexible PVC jacket resists wear while keeping the cable manageable. Its short 0.3 m length makes it convenient for close connections where long cables would be cumbersome.

Suitable for

• Splitting a headphone output to two headphones
• Dividing a line-level stereo output to two stereo inputs
• Use with portable players, laptops and small audio systems

When it may not be suitable

This passive Y-adapter does not provide independent volume control for each output and is not intended to mix signals or drive separate high-power amplifiers. It may not be suitable for professional studio use where impedance matching or balanced connections are required.

Key specifications

• Cable length: 0.3 m
• Connectors: 1 × 3.5 mm straight male to 2 × 3.5 mm straight female
• Conductor construction: single-strand (18 × 0.10 mm), conductor area 0.14 mm²
• Shielding: spiral shielding
• Jacket material: PVC
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug the 3.5 mm male connector into the source device's headphone or line output. Insert up to two stereo headphones or stereo input cables into the two 3.5 mm female sockets. Ensure connectors are fully seated for reliable contact. Avoid sharp bends near the molded bend protection and route the cable to prevent strain on the connectors.

What to consider before purchase

• It is a passive splitter: no individual volume control on outputs
• Not suitable for balanced audio or professional impedance matching
• Short 0.3 m length — suitable for close connections only

Usage recommendations

For best results use with portable devices or desktop sources at line or headphone level, and avoid connecting to multiple power amplifiers simultaneously. Keep the cable free from tight knots and excessive bending to maintain longevity.
