Detailed Specifications
Intro Overview:
The StarTech **LP4SATAFM12** is a **12-inch** power adapter cable that converts a modern 15-pin **SATA power** connector into a legacy 4-pin **LP4** (Molex) connector. This adapter is necessary when your Power Supply Unit (PSU) has many modern SATA plugs but you need to power an older peripheral, such as certain case fans, liquid cooling pumps, or older **Hard Drives**.
Expanded Overview:
With a usable **12-inch** length, the StarTech LP4SATAFM12 provides routing flexibility within the PC chassis. This solution effectively addresses the common issue of modern PSUs lacking enough **LP4 connectors** for older equipment. The adapter takes the power signals from the SATA plug and correctly maps the 12V and 5V lines to the legacy 4-pin LP4 interface, ensuring the older peripheral receives the required power for proper operation. It is an essential component for system **upgrades** and custom builds that integrate older hardware with modern power supply units.
Features :
The StarTech LP4SATAFM12 is a highly functional and simple adapter cable solution.
Product Key Features
- 12-inch (30 cm) adapter length
- Converts 1x SATA power to 1x LP4 power
- Ideal for powering legacy peripherals (fans, pumps)
- Male SATA Input to Female LP4 Output (F/M)
- Durable construction for reliable, long-term use
Reliability & Performance :
This adapter ensures **reliable power** conversion and distribution. The StarTech LP4SATAFM12 uses high-quality 18 AWG wiring, which is critical for maintaining stable **voltage** and current flow to the connected legacy device. The secure fit of both the SATA and LP4 connectors prevents intermittent power loss, contributing to the overall **reliability** and **performance** of the attached peripherals. This **hard drive cable** solution for power is dependable for bridging generations of PC hardware.
