Power Cable Adapter Triton SST-PP13 — 8‑Pin EPS to 8‑Pin EPS & 4+4‑Pin

The Triton SST-PP13 power cable adapter converts a single 8‑pin EPS connector into one 8‑pin EPS and one 4+4‑pin connector. Designed for desktop power delivery, this adapter enables compatibility between power supplies and motherboards or CPUs that require alternate EPS/ATX connector layouts. It is a passive cable adapter intended for adapting cable routing, extending connector options, or enabling the use of a single EPS feed with systems that need both an 8‑pin and a 4+4‑pin input.

Advantages

This adapter provides a compact solution to expand connector compatibility without modifying the power supply or motherboard. It maintains the original connector form factors and simplifies cable management by offering an additional CPU/auxiliary connector from one existing EPS feed. The straightforward, passive design requires no drivers or external power and is suitable for integration into custom builds and upgrades where alternate connector configurations are needed.

Suitable for

• Systems that require both an 8‑pin EPS and an additional 4+4‑pin CPU/ATX connector
• Upgrades where the existing PSU cable set lacks the needed connector variety
• Custom desktop builds and troubleshooting when adapting cable layout or reach
• Temporary use during component swaps or when testing motherboards with different CPU power inputs

Key specifications

• Input connector: 8‑pin EPS (female to male as required for PSU connection)
• Output connectors: one 8‑pin EPS and one 4+4‑pin CPU/ATX
• Compatibility: standard ATX/EPS connector pinouts for CPU power delivery
• Design: passive adapter cable with fixed molded connectors
• Use environment: internal PC/chassis use for CPU/motherboard power connections

How to use

Shut down the system and disconnect the PSU from mains power before installing the adapter. Connect the adapter's 8‑pin end to the power supply cable or direct PSU 8‑pin output, then attach the 8‑pin and 4+4‑pin outputs to the corresponding motherboard or CPU power inputs as required. Ensure connectors are fully seated and oriented correctly according to the keyed housings. After installation, verify secure connections and restore mains power; then power on the system and check for stable operation.

Recommendations

Use this adapter only for compatible ATX/EPS pinouts and within the power limits of the original power supply and cables. Do not use the adapter to combine multiple PSU rails or to bypass manufacturer cable/connector guidelines. For sustained high-current CPU loads, verify that the PSU and individual cable conductors can support the required current to avoid overheating or voltage drop.
