Splitter that takes one LEGO Powered Up cable and splits it into two sockets. The ID pins are only connected to the primary socket. The PWM pins used to drive the secondary socket can be driven the same as the primary (“same”) or with reverse polarity (“reversed”), depending which jumper is set. Connect the center pin of each row to either the left or right. Make sure both jumpers match!
Be sure to order the THIN board, 0.8mm thickness! The female sockets have two mounting posts that “snap in” through the board. The neck is only about 1mm long, so will probably not snap properly through a 1.6mm board.
I ordered both the cable and female sockets from AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33057514281.html is one store selling them, but there are several others.
