USB 2.0 Mini-B to Dual USB-A Y-Cable - Extra Power for External Devices
When a standard USB cable cannot supply sufficient power to operate an external device, such as a portable 2.5" hard drive, this USB 2.0 Y-Cable provides the additional power required. Designed to deliver both data and boosted power, it ensures stable performance for power-hungry USB peripherals.
Simply connect the USB Mini-B connector to your device, then plug the two USB-A connectors into available USB ports on the same computer. The primary USB-A connector handles data and power, while the auxiliary USB-A connector (identified by its red snag less hood) provides extra power as needed.
Built with foil and braid shielding to reduce EMI/RFI interference and twisted-pair construction for minimal crosstalk, this cable ensures high-speed, error-free USB 2.0 data transfer while maximising power delivery.
