JIUWU Micro USB Male to USB Female Host OTG Cable + Power Cable Y Splitter

This the better quality USB OTG cable. Don't get the one that is a few bucks cheaper. The wires are significantly than any USB OTG I've ever seen. the connectors are heavy duty and clip into the other connectors securely. I use this cable for my in dash fixed installation of a Nexus 7 in my Forester. The tablet is running on Timurs Kernel on stock 6.1. This cable charges the tablet quickly while powering 6 slave usb devices. It is hard the write much about a cable.THis cable allows you to connect USB devices while charging the tablet.

I bought this cable to use a USB keyboard on my tablet (nvidia shield) while charging and can confirm this cable works as desired. As other reviewers mentioned, there is a specific order of operations that must be followed for charging. Connect the cable to the power source using the USB A male connection, then plug the micro USB end into the device and confirm charging. You can then plug your USB device in the USB A female port.It's not the prettiest thing to see hanging off your tablet, but it works.

This cable works perfectly fine supplying power, HOWEVER I bought is specifically for my Kindle Fire HDX and it still doesn’t allow for external USB drives to work. I tried two different portable battery chargers with different amperages and also a wall plug adapter. This is not a knock to this cable, simply a disadvantage to owning a Kindle Fire tablet.On the flip side, it allows a USB drive to be connected to my old Samsung Note 2 to transfer files, but oddly does NOT supply power to the phone.

I purchased this cable assembly so that I could charge my device (smart phone, tablet, etc.) via the microUSB from the male USB plug, and at the same time connect a USB stick to the female receptacle of the cable assembly. This way my On-the-Go USB stick will not drain my device, as it normally does very rapidly. No brainer if you look at the cable assembly.However, this cable assembly, as well as three other identical cable assemblies failed. Different cables assemblies produced different result on the same device, and four different devices behaved differently with each cable. Clearly, the standard does not permit it, and I’m afraid this contraption could damage your device or your charger. I hope you know better, I simply failed to use the cable assembly as I intended, couldn’t find another use for it. I regret all four manufacturers failed to diagram or clearly explain the intended use.

I wanted one cable for my moble RaspberryPi server and this did the trick! It had all I needed including the 90deg micro USB!! It doesn't work on my Galaxy S6 but then again I knew it wouldn't. Posted a picture so others can see it working and to give an idea of how to use this cable.

Power connector doesn't work, Android tablet doesn't charge by plugging in the male USB to a battery brick, although the Android tablet will play movies off a jump drive plugged into the female (white) plug, so you get 50% functionality. Also beware that if your headphone jack is right next to the micro USB port on your device, this right-angle connector has a 50% chance of being "the wrong way" and blocking it - my Verizon 8" Android Ellipsis tablet is a victim, and I had to go to Bluetooth earbugs instead of wired. I will be looking for another brand that doesn't have these two limitations.

Great product if you have a power hungry phone/tablet external peripherals such as Android TV Tuner or Hard Drive.This is not obvious from the product description but you can’t charge phone/tablet using that OTG cable!It provides power for external peripheral devices only (with any USB Power Banks or Wall Charger).

I bought this cable hoping that it would allow me to charge my Android tablet whilst connected to a USB peripheral. Unfortunately this cable does not seem to allow that as it seems the USB type A male end end of the cable does not have the data pins connected, only the power pins. I am aware that in order for a setup like this to work you need to run a specific kernel patch on your Android device, however with just the power pins of the USB type A male end of the cable connected it is not possible with this cable. This cable is intended to be used when extra power is required for when connecting larger USB peripheral, such as an external hard drive.
