USB 2.0 Y Cable PremiumCord ku2y01 A male + A male to A female, 2 m

PremiumCord USB 2.0 Y cable ku2y01 with two A male connectors and one A female connector, total length 2 m. The cable is intended to provide additional power or a data connection for USB devices that require higher current or an extended connection. It complies with USB 2.0 signalling and can be used to supply devices that need more than the standard single-port USB current.

Advantages

The PremiumCord USB 2.0 Y cable allows combining power from two USB Type-A male ports into a single USB Type-A female connector, increasing available current up to the combined output of two ports. It is certified for USB 2.0 (1.5/12/480 Mbps) and is suitable for powering atypical devices or strengthening power delivery to peripherals without changing host hardware. The cable provides a straightforward passive solution without active electronics.

Suitable for

• External hard drives and optical drives that require additional power
• USB peripherals with higher current consumption than a single USB port can supply
• Situations where a female A receptacle is needed for connecting an upstream cable

How to use

Connect both USB Type-A male plugs to two separate USB ports on the computer or power source, then connect the USB Type-A female connector to the device's USB cable or plug. Ensure both host ports are powered and that the combined current of the two ports meets the device's requirements. The cable is passive; do not expect negotiation beyond standard USB 2.0 signalling.

Usage recommendations

Use this cable when a device needs more current than a single USB 2.0 port can provide (standard single-port USB 2.0 supplies up to 500 mA). Do not use the cable to bypass device or host power-safety mechanisms; verify device compatibility and avoid connecting to ports with differing voltage levels or from separate power domains.
