Product Features
Technical Overview
This splitter cable utilizes the standard 4-pin Molex LP4 interface, commonly found on older optical drives, case fans, and certain internal peripherals. The male connector plugs directly into a power supply unit's LP4 output, while the two female connectors accept standard LP4 device cables.
The Y-split design maintains proper power distribution across both outputs, supporting simultaneous operation of two compatible devices. With a compact 45.4-gram weight and flexible cable construction, this adapter integrates seamlessly into existing cable management setups without adding significant bulk or strain.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cord Length, Weight (Approximate), Country of Origin, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This internal Y splitter provides a practical solution for expanding power connectivity in constrained environments. By enabling two devices to operate from a single PSU connection, it helps maximize existing power supply capabilities without requiring hardware upgrades.
Connection Expansion
Adds an extra LP4 power connection for internal components when your power supply has limited available outputs.
- Dual female outputs from single male input
- Maintains standard 4-pin Molex compatibility
- No external power source required
Installation Flexibility
The 1.2-foot cable length accommodates various chassis layouts and cable routing preferences.
- Sufficient reach for most internal configurations
- Flexible cable minimizes routing restrictions
- Lightweight design reduces cable management strain
Deployment / Use Cases
This internal power Y splitter serves multiple practical applications in system configuration and maintenance scenarios. It's particularly valuable when working with legacy systems or expanding existing configurations where power supply connectors are limited.
Common deployment scenarios include adding additional case fans to improve system cooling, connecting multiple optical drives in media servers or workstations, and powering auxiliary internal devices in custom-built systems. The splitter also proves useful during hardware upgrades when temporary additional power connections are needed for testing or transitional configurations.
Physical Profile
The splitter features a compact form factor with a 1.2-foot cable that provides adequate reach for most internal routing needs. The lightweight 45.4-gram construction minimizes stress on power supply connectors while allowing flexible positioning within chassis. The cable's flexibility supports clean cable management practices, helping maintain optimal airflow within system enclosures.

FAQ
What type of connectors does this Y splitter use?
This splitter uses standard 4-pin Molex LP4 connectors. It features one male connector that plugs into your power supply and two female connectors that accept cables from compatible devices. This configuration allows you to connect two LP4 devices to a single PSU output.
How long is the cable on this power splitter?
The cable measures 1.2 feet (approximately 14 inches) in length. This provides sufficient reach for most internal routing scenarios within standard computer cases while maintaining clean cable management.
Can I use this splitter with modern power supplies?
Yes, this splitter works with any power supply that includes standard 4-pin Molex LP4 outputs. While many modern PSUs focus on SATA power connectors, most still include at least one LP4 output for backward compatibility with older devices and accessories.
What devices typically use 4-pin Molex LP4 connectors?
4-pin Molex LP4 connectors are commonly found on older optical drives (CD/DVD/Blu-ray), certain case fans, some lighting systems, and legacy internal peripherals. They were the standard internal power connector before SATA power became prevalent.
Is there a warranty on this power splitter cable?
Yes, this C2G product comes with a lifetime warranty. This coverage applies to defects in materials and workmanship for the product's usable life, providing long-term assurance for your investment in this internal power accessory.
Can I use this splitter to power external devices?
No, this splitter is designed exclusively for internal use within computer cases or enclosed systems. It should not be used for external power distribution applications, as internal cables lack the necessary insulation and safety features for exposed environments.
