1-to-2 DC Power Splitter Cable
5.5 × 2.5mm Female to Dual 5.5 × 2.5mm Male
The BiXPower CNT-Y25 is a compact, heavy-duty
1-to-2 DC power splitter cable designed to split one
5.5 × 2.5mm DC power connection into
two 5.5 × 2.5mm male power connectors.
Simply connect the splitter's 5.5 × 2.5mm female jack
to an existing cable with a 5.5 × 2.5mm male plug. You will then have
two 5.5 × 2.5mm male connectors available for powering compatible
DC devices.
Connector Configuration
Input: 1 × 5.5 × 2.5mm Female DC Jack
Output: 2 × 5.5 × 2.5mm Male DC Plugs
Wire: 18 AWG
Cable Length: Approximately 5 in. (126mm)
Maximum Current: 8A total
Protective Female Connector Sleeve
The 5.5 × 2.5mm female connector features an extended protective sleeve
around the connection area.
When properly connected to a compatible male plug, the sleeve helps
shield the electrical connection from dust and moisture
while also helping provide a more secure and protected connection.
This makes the CNT-Y25 especially useful where a standard exposed
barrel connection may need additional protection.
Note:
The protective sleeve helps provide dust protection and water resistance
around a properly mated connection. It is not intended for underwater use
or continuous exposure to water.
How to Use the CNT-Y25
1.
Start with a DC power cable that has a
5.5 × 2.5mm male connector.
2.
Insert the male connector into the
5.5 × 2.5mm female connector of the CNT-Y25.
3.
The original power connection is now split into
two 5.5 × 2.5mm male connectors.
Key Features

One 5.5 × 2.5mm female input jack
-
Two 5.5 × 2.5mm male output plugs
-
Protective sleeve around the female connector helps resist dust and moisture
-
18 AWG power wires
-
Supports up to 8A total current
-
Compact design with approximately 5 in. (126mm) cable length
-
Multiple CNT-Y25 splitters can be connected together to create additional outputs
Expandable Design — Connect Multiple Splitters
Need more than two outputs? Multiple CNT-Y25 splitters can be
daisy-chained together to provide additional
5.5 × 2.5mm male power connectors.
Simply connect one male plug from one CNT-Y25 splitter to the female
jack of another CNT-Y25 splitter.
2 Splitters = Up to 3 Male Outputs
3 Splitters = Up to 4 Male Outputs
Important Power Information
The CNT-Y25 is a passive power splitter. It does not
change, convert, or regulate the input voltage. Both outputs receive
the same voltage supplied by the connected power source.
The total combined current of all connected devices must not
exceed 8A. When multiple CNT-Y25 splitters are daisy-chained,
the total current through the original input connection must still
remain within the 8A limit.
Please Check Connector Size Before Ordering
The CNT-Y25 is designed for
5.5mm outer diameter × 2.5mm inner diameter
DC barrel connectors. Please verify your device and power cable
connector size before ordering. A 5.5 × 2.5mm connector can look
very similar to a 5.5 × 2.1mm connector, but they are different sizes.
