Description

StarTech USB2HABMY3 USB 2.0 to Mini-USB Cable with Power Splitter

Overview

The StarTech USB2HABMY3 is a 3-foot (0.9m) USB 2.0 cable designed to connect and power external devices equipped with a USB Mini-B port. This Y-cable configuration allows for simultaneous data transfer and power delivery, making it ideal for powering portable hard drives or other peripherals that draw significant power, without requiring a separate AC adapter. The USB2ABMY3 supports data transfer rates up to 480 Mbps, ensuring efficient data exchange.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any device featuring a standard USB Mini-B 5-pin connector. It is commonly used with external hard drive enclosures, digital cameras, GPS devices, and other portable electronics that utilize a Mini-USB port for both data and power. The dual USB-A connectors on the host side ensure sufficient power draw from the connected computer or hub.

Installation Notes

The cable features two USB Type-A connectors for the host connection. Connect both to your computer or USB hub for optimal power delivery. If only data transfer is required, a single USB-A connector may suffice, but full power delivery requires both. The wire gauge is 24 AWG for data and 28 AWG for power, optimized for reliable performance over the 3-foot length. Operating temperature range is -20C to 60C.
