Split USB power and data paths for high-power applications.

## Pricing

- **Price:** $25.10 (inc GST) — $22.82 AUD, exc GST
- **Quantity discounts:** 12+ $22.14 (exc GST)

## Availability & dispatch

- In stock, ships same business day if ordered before 2PM (Australia/Sydney).
- We can dispatch 24 today; more stock is typically available with a 5–30 day lead time.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE10405:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE10405:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

A versatile USB-C bridge designed to isolate and inject high-current power into a data connection. It decouples the power and data lines, allowing you to maintain a clean USB 2.0 data link with a host (such as a PC or single-board computer) while sourcing up to 140W of power from an independent USB-PD supply.

For developers and engineers, testing high-power USB peripherals often presents a challenge: standard USB data ports on laptops or hubs rarely supply enough current for power-hungry devices like heavy-duty servos, LED arrays, or development boards.

This module solves that issue by injecting up to 28V/5A from an external PD source. It ensures your device under test receives stable, high-wattage power without risking over-current damage to your host computer's USB controller.

Separate power and data delivery for automotive infotainment systems. It sits between your vehicle's head unit and your mobile device, allowing the data lines to pass through uninterrupted while replacing the low-current power from the car with a high-wattage input from a dedicated 12V PD car charger.

### Core Features

- **High-Power Injection:** Safely inject up to 140W (28V/5A) into your USB-C connection, allowing you to power demanding peripherals that exceed the limits of standard host data ports.
- **Data/Power Isolation:** Maintains a reliable USB 2.0 data stream to your host while sourcing power externally, protecting sensitive host ports from current spikes or voltage sag.
- **Universal Protocol Support:** Fully compatible with USB Power Delivery (PD) and PPS (Programmable Power Supply), making it adaptable for testing modern smartphones, SBCs, and custom electronics.
- **Robust Thermal Design:** Features a 3D-printed PETG enclosure capable of withstanding environments up to 70°C, suitable for enclosed integrations or warm operating conditions.
