FAQs

What type of power connector does this adapter use?

This adapter uses the 4-pin LP4 (Molex) connector for both the input from the power supply and the output to the devices.

Can I use this adapter for graphics cards?

No, this adapter is designed for 5.25" internal devices and uses LP4 connectors. Graphics cards typically require 6-pin or 8-pin PCIe power connectors.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Lindy 33126 power adapter comes with a 10-year manufacturer's warranty.

Will this adapter work with SATA power connectors?

No, this adapter is not compatible with SATA power connectors. It specifically splits LP4 connectors.

How many devices can I connect with this adapter?

You can connect up to two devices that require a 5.25" LP4 power connection.

Is the cable length suitable for all PC cases?

The 0.25-meter length is suitable for most standard ATX and smaller cases. For very large or custom-built cases, the length might be limiting.

Troubleshooting

One or both connected devices do not power on.

Verify that the adapter is securely plugged into both the power supply and the devices. Ensure the power supply has enough wattage to support all connected components. Check the individual power cables of the devices for damage.

Device experiences intermittent power or performance issues.

Check for loose connections at the adapter and the devices. Ensure the adapter is not being sharply bent or crimped. Test the device with a direct power connection if possible to rule out adapter issues.

Cable is too short for desired component placement.

Re-evaluate the internal layout of your PC case. Consider alternative routing paths or repositioning components if feasible. For significantly longer runs, a different adapter with a greater length would be necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Efficiently splits one power connector into two.
  • Ideal for adding more 5.25" devices like optical drives or fan controllers.
  • Includes a 10-year warranty, indicating product durability.
  • Simple plug-and-play installation.

Cons

  • The 0.25m length might be restrictive in larger PC cases.
  • Only compatible with LP4 connectors; not suitable for newer ATX 12V or SATA power connectors.
  • Adds a point of potential failure if not handled with care during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, disconnect power from your computer. Connect the male LP4 connector of the adapter to an available LP4 port on your power supply unit. Then, connect the two female LP4 connectors to your 5.25" devices (e.g., optical drives, card readers, fan controllers). Ensure all connections are secure.

Compatibility: This cable is specifically designed for LP4 (4-pin Molex) power connectors commonly found on older power supplies and used for 5.25" devices. It is *not* compatible with 4-pin ATX 12V CPU power connectors or SATA power connectors.

Care: Avoid excessive bending or stressing the cables. Ensure adequate airflow around the connection points within the PC case. Keep connections clean and free from dust.
