DC 5.5x2.1mm Y Splitter Cable 1-to-2 Power Adapter | Qme
DC 5.5×2.1mm Y-Shaped 1-to-2 Power Splitter Cable
Keep your devices powered without the clutter of extra adapters. This DC 5.5×2.1mm Y-shaped splitter cable lets you split a single DC power source into two outputs — perfect for CCTV cameras, LED strips, routers, security systems, and other 12V DC-powered devices that share the same barrel connector size.
With its compact Y-shaped design, you get a reliable 1 female input to 2 male outputs, allowing one power supply to run multiple devices simultaneously. The 5521 barrel connector (5.5mm outer diameter, 2.1mm inner pin) is one of the most universally used DC connector standards, making this cable highly versatile across a wide range of electronics and low-voltage setups.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What devices are compatible with the DC 5.5×2.1mm Y splitter cable?
A: This splitter cable works with any device that uses a standard 5.5mm × 2.1mm (5521) DC barrel connector, including CCTV security cameras, LED strip lights, routers, and 12V power distribution systems. It is one of the most widely used DC connector sizes in consumer electronics.
Q: How does the 1-to-2 Y-shaped DC splitter work?
A: The cable takes a single DC power input through its female connector and splits it into two male output connectors. This allows one power supply unit to simultaneously power two separate 12V DC devices — no extra adapters or tools needed.
Q: Is this DC splitter cable safe to use with CCTV camera systems?
A: Yes. This cable is specifically designed for low-voltage DC power distribution applications such as CCTV security systems. Always ensure your power supply's total amperage rating meets or exceeds the combined current draw of both connected devices for safe and reliable operation.
