Ensure your high-draw external devices receive the stable power and data they need with the EMX Professional Storage Series. This specialized 1.2-meter cable features two USB Type-A plugs on one end and a single Mini 5-Pin (Mini-B) connector on the other. It is the definitive solution for powering older 2.5" external hard drives and high-capacity portable peripherals that require more current than a single USB port can provide.
Dual-USB Power Injection: Designed to draw power from two USB ports simultaneously, providing up to 1000mA of current—essential for spinning up older mechanical external hard drives.
High-Speed Data Sync: One USB head handles both data and power, while the second provides supplemental power, supporting stable 480 Mbps transfer rates.
Full Copper Performance: Built with high-purity copper conductors to minimize voltage drop across the 1.2M length, ensuring your hardware doesn't "click" or disconnect.
Optimal 1.2M Reach: Offers the perfect length for desktop or laptop use, allowing you to position your drive comfortably while reaching two adjacent USB ports.
External Hard Drives: The standard "Y-Cable" replacement for older 2.5" HDD enclosures from WD, Seagate, and Toshiba that use a Mini-B port.
Portable Optical Drives: Powers external CD/DVD writers that often require extra current during the disc-burning process.
High-Power WiFi Adapters: Ideal for long-range USB wireless dongles that need additional power for stable signal transmission.
Legacy Media Players: Connect and power high-draw portable media players or specialized industrial equipment.
"Y-Split" Design: Features a data/power primary plug and a power-only secondary plug for maximum hardware compatibility.
Precision Mini-B Interface: Ensures a snug, secure fit into the device port to prevent data corruption during file transfers.
Durable PVC Jacket: A rugged, flexible outer casing protects the internal wiring from physical stress and tangling.
Integrated Strain Relief: Reinforced connector boots protect the cable's internal joints from the strain of frequent use.
Product Type: USB 2.0 Dual Type-A Male to Mini-B (5-Pin)
Configuration: 2x USB-A (Input) to 1x Mini-B (Output)
Colour: Professional Matte Black
Length: 1.2 Meters
Included: 1x 2xUSB AM to Mini 5P Cable
1. Do I need to plug in both USB heads? If your device is an external hard drive that isn't showing up or is making a "clicking" sound, you must plug in both USB heads to provide the necessary startup current. For lower-power devices, one may suffice.
2. Will this work with modern USB-C laptops? Yes, but you will need two USB-C to USB-A adapters. This cable is specifically designed for systems with multiple standard USB-A ports.
3. Is this compatible with my phone? Generally, no. Most older phones use Micro USB, while this cable uses Mini USB (Mini-B). Mini-B is thicker and more square-shaped, commonly found on cameras and external hard drives.
