This cable is designed to simplify RGB lighting setups in custom-built PCs by allowing multiple addressable RGB devices to be controlled from a single motherboard header. It is ideal for users looking to synchronize lighting effects across fans, LED strips, and other components without the need for extra controllers or hubs. The splitter cable connects directly to the motherboard and distributes power and control signals to connected devices, making it a useful addition for PC modders and enthusiasts.
The cable uses a 12V 4-pin SM4P male connector, which is compatible with addressable RGB headers found on many modern motherboards. It does not support the older 5V 3-pin SM3P RGB headers, so users must ensure their motherboard has the correct type of header. The splitter is made with durable plastic and copper wiring to ensure reliable performance and longevity. Its compact size and black color make it blend well with most PC builds.
Each splitter cable is 31cm long, providing enough reach to connect devices without excessive slack or strain on the motherboard. The package includes two cables, allowing users to connect up to four devices in total when used with a single header. Installation is straightforward—simply plug the cable into the motherboard and connect the devices to the other end. No software or drivers are required for operation.
This splitter is best suited for users who want to create a cohesive lighting setup in their PC case. It works well with RGB fans, LED strips, and other compatible components that support addressable RGB lighting. However, it is not suitable for non-addressable RGB devices that use a 3-pin connection. Users should also be mindful of the total power draw from connected devices to avoid overloading the motherboard's power delivery system.
