## Long description

ShiverPeaks 8-pin EPS extension cable 78221-HQ is a sleeved CPU power extension designed to extend an existing 8-pin EPS (4+4) connector for PCs. The cable provides a single female-to-male 8-pin EPS extension that lets you relocate or reach the PSU to CPU power header more conveniently in compact cases, custom builds or when using non-standard cable routing. It is compatible with standard ATX/EPS power connectors used on modern desktop motherboards and power supplies.
Advantages
The sleeved design offers improved cable protection and cleaner routing compared with bare wires, while maintaining the original connector form factor for plug-and-play compatibility. The short length reduces excess cable slack and helps keep airflow unobstructed inside the chassis. As an extension rather than a splitter, it preserves the original power delivery path without altering current distribution.
Suitable for
Extending the CPU 8-pin EPS power lead in compact or mid-tower PC cases
Reaching the motherboard EPS/ATX12V power header when PSU connectors are short
Custom cable routing for improved case airflow and cable management
Temporary or permanent relocations of the PSU-to-CPU power connection
Key specifications
Connector type: 8-pin EPS female to 8-pin EPS male (4+4 style compatibility)
Application: CPU power extension for ATX/EPS motherboards
Cable finish: Braided/sleeved outer covering
Length: 0.2 m (approximate usable extension length)
Form factor: Single extension, not a splitter or adapter with additional outputs
How to use
To use, disconnect power and insert the male 8-pin connector into the motherboard EPS/ATX12V socket, then connect the female end to the PSU 8-pin EPS lead. Ensure connectors are fully seated and latched where applicable. Verify that the cable routing does not place undue strain on either connector and avoids contact with hot components or moving parts such as fans. Reconnect power and perform normal system checks.
Usage recommendations
Use this extension only with compatible 8-pin EPS/ATX12V connectors and avoid using it as a power splitter. Keep the cable clear of sharp edges and routing channels that could pinch the sleeve. For safe installation, power down and unplug the system before connecting or disconnecting the extension.
