Cable en Y USB 3.2 Gen.1 InLine 2x conector Type-A macho / conector micro-B macho, negro, 1,5m

The InLine USB 3.2 Gen.1 Y-Cable (2x Type A male / Micro B male, 1.5 m, black) is a dual-headed USB cable designed to provide high-speed data transfer while offering additional power input when needed. It features USB 3.2 Gen 1 signalling for up to SuperSpeed data rates and gold-plated contacts for improved electrical contact and reduced corrosion. The 1.5 m length balances reach and signal integrity for typical desktop and mobile setups.

Advantages

This cable supports USB 3.2 Gen 1 data rates and uses a Micro-USB B connector for direct connection to compatible external drives, mobile devices and peripherals. The Y-shaped design with two Type A male plugs allows one connector to carry data and power while the second can supply extra current from a second USB port when a single port cannot provide sufficient power. Gold-plated contacts enhance conductivity and resist tarnishing for longer reliable use. The black jacket provides a neutral appearance and basic protection against wear.

Suitable for

• Connecting external portable hard drives and SSDs with Micro-B receptacles to a PC or laptop
• Powering USB devices that need additional current by using two host USB-A ports
• Transferring large files between a computer and a Micro-B equipped device at SuperSpeed rates
• Temporary desktop or workstation setups where a longer, single-cable connection is preferred

Key specifications

• Connector types: Micro-USB B (Micro-B) to 2 × USB Type A (male)
• USB standard: USB 3.2 Gen 1 (also referred to as USB 3.1 Gen 1 / SuperSpeed USB)
• Cable length: 1.5 m
• Contacts: gold-plated
• Colour: black

How to use

Insert the Micro-USB B connector into the target device’s Micro-B port. Plug the primary USB Type A connector into the host port on the computer or power source to enable data transfer and power. If the device requires more current than a single USB port provides, insert the secondary USB Type A connector into an additional host USB-A port to supply extra power. Ensure both host ports are on the same machine or powered hub for consistent grounding and stable operation. Avoid forcing connectors and confirm correct orientation before insertion.

Recommendations

For reliable SuperSpeed transfers, use high-quality host ports and avoid long passive extensions. When using the secondary USB-A plug solely for extra power, ensure that the host ports are not USB power-limited (such as certain low-power hubs). Store the cable coiled loosely to prevent kinks and disconnect both plugs before moving connected devices.
